A bloke that did some odd jobs for us at the arts centre. I then paid him to help me take apart and re-build a shed I had been given. He became a stalker and used to spend time sleeping in that shed, eating from my garden and chickens. A drunken useless git he is! I managed to shed him, thankfully...

Fantastic list, Hann I had to look up amelanchier, though if you had written service or Juneberry I'd have heard of it albeit without really knowing what it was. Also known as the sugarplum.
Hang on, you have wild service and amelanchier, what's the difference? And have you had fruit from the mulberry and persimmon?
