Longest day, shortest day
Another long, hot day here, with the mangoes from next-door-but-one's tree still thudding down into our front yard here - it's a big tree, and the houses are built very close together.
I have been thriftily picking them up, and eating them, unless the ants have got to them first - or else when there's too many accumulated, I've been slicing them up and freezing the pulp. The ants get to quite a few, though, because a ripe mango falling on a brick-paved courtyard - well, you follow. And now I have reminded myself that it's time to get up and see if the mangoes most recently heard crashing down are to be breakfast or not.

Ah-ha! Two! and with skin unbroken. :)
