    They do look good! See how the branches are bending with the weight of them?

    Well, this mango farm is also up for sale - So if I really do buy it, then all Stewbees will be welcome to visit and stay for as long as they like! :D

    Actually Frank, one of the greatest eureka moments in scientific history - Occurred when an apple from a tree fell on Sir Isaac Newton's head! So who knows what I might come up with in a similar situation!?! :rofl: :smt044

    We had a Mango tree in the yard of a house we rented in Florida many, many years ago. We really didn't like them so when they started falling from the tree I was out every day cleaning them up before they rotted and stank to high heaven. One afternoon a truck filled with construction works stopped out front and the foreman came to ask if we would be interested in letting them stop every day to keep the ripe ones picked up. I jumped at that, so every afternoon on their way home there would be almost a dozen guys with bags and sacks out front grabbing as many as were ripe or almost ripe. It was certainly a win-win for all of us.
