Lychee netting
We managed to build some tunnels over the younger lychees and covered them with fruit fly netting. Mateus came up and was a great help and a willing off-sider.
With Ursula and the wwoofers Lisa and Felix helping too we got it done in a few hot mornings and cooler afternoons.
Mateus and I also managed to resurrect the big irrigation sprinkler in an archaeological dig worthy of Time Team (it had fallen over after standing for 20 years and was buried in legume and grass in the bottom papaw patch). The Deutz engine went like clockwork after 3 years, and the pipework took only an hour or two to re-connect.
