I remember 1983 as a good summer too. I have vivid recollections of
having to seek shade after mid-morning whilst weekend strawberry picking
at Leigh Sinton Farm around the middle/late June period. The River Teme
was nearby by and it was so hot by midday that we would jump in the
river to cool off.

I didn't earn that much pocket money from strawberry picking that year.
