Gisèle is over for a few days from Amsterdam. She has lived in the neighbourhood for more than 5 years but had never "done" the olive harvest before. This was her chance to get even.
If you've tried picking from the ground, hitting with a stick and there are still olives in the tree the only thing you can do is: join them!
We had a communal picking day today on Bill's land. He couldn't help much because he just had his knee operated but he provided us with another batch of olives and a perfect picknick spot to have lunch. Cheers!
(By the way it is the 4th of december and we're all in short sleeves because it was hot: 25º C...)
