4:30 Great old song. "Farmer's Boy". Regimental march of the Wessex Regiment and the Duke of Edinburgh's ROyal Regiment (Berkshire and Wiltshire), both of which are sadly no more. Soldiers in those regiments were known as "Farmers Boys" and the veterans of the units still rfer to themselves as such today. I myself have the honour to be a "Farmer's Boy".

Hi Neil, I live in Tipperary, and planted 16 cider apple trees as a retirement hobby some years back I have a mature Bramley and a Russet which go in the mix, made 220 litres this year hope to get 200 litres after racking etc. Will do even better in another few years. That lovely amber nectar, all the nicer when you make it yourself. Cheers!

I guess the straw was/is used to hold all the slippery bits of apple together in one mass during pressing rather than them being squeezed out sideways? Would also provide channels for the juice to get to the edges. Similiar function to leaving the stems in with bunches in a grape press for wine

The Journo was Clive Gunnel, who was actually present when Ruth Ellis shot her lover becoming the last woman in the UK to be hanged. Albert Pierrepoint performing the execution.. He made numerous country stories in the South and South West and Westcountry, they were all very interesting, and he often had a pint of something in his hand. .
