While we have oranges on the tree next to the patio, the neighbours in the house next door have more and larger oranges on their tree, the eastern branches of which cascade over the concrete wall and overhang our side.
The neighbours are away, but I feel oddly awkward about picking “their” oranges even though I think it’s perfectly legitimate. And clearly if it were wrong their being away would make no moral difference . Not only are the oranges hanging on our side but it would be virtually impossible for the neighbours to pick them. Couldn’t be done from their place. They would have to come to our building and knock on the door of our flat (stepladder under arm), trek through our apartment and exit through our bedroom onto the patio. Not a likely scenario.
Peaceful here but last night western Türkiye experienced a 6.1 magnitude earthquake at 22:48 local time, with a 4.2 m aftershock minutes later. Not felt here but was in Izmir and Istanbul. No deaths reported.
