This also gets a frequent outing, but I have a slight disadvantage in that our choir's arrangement gives me a harmony line through the verses rather than the words.

I inherited three overgrown plum trees on an allotment this year and can recommend chutney for something different (makes good cheese toasties, especially): www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/rich...
Plum chutney
Make-ahead this rich plum chutney for special occasions or simply enjoy al fresco with your favourite cold cuts. Flavour with spices such as cumin, paprika and ginger.

I read a novel recently in which the main character/narrator was killed midway and narrated the rest of the book as a ghost. Hated it.
