and the world is now a better place(Kel excepted)

it was lovely up there, the next level of the mountain was the 'madonna de campiglio' national park, the view from the top of a ladder was very much the same day in day out though, every year they finish picking the day before the snow arrives.
it was all a local cooperative there too, that way if someone had a bad year then they would be ok, sometimes an orchard may get flooded due to other orchards so it was fair really, they only started the golden delicious in the 70's so it meant everyone was equal when the land was divided.
the guy used to go crazy if you dropped 1 apple, every time he said "attenzione" we would all squeeze any apples in our hands, they would then bruise whilst in storage and rot 1/2 the crate![]()
Ah the penny drops now we know why she fell for younah, just there, and once was enough tbh, after 7-8 weeks off that my hands were cramped in the apple holding position, it was agony for a while to try to open your hands out.
a load of us went up after working in greece, some used to go every year, then to israel for the winter. for us it was a stop off on the way home as we were going to berchtesgaden in germany to see friends, cos my missus lived there for a while too. she used to work in 'The Eagles Nest' which was hitlers mountain retreat.
