  The fields of Jersey depict this seasons Jersey Royal new potatoes being protected from the elements and birds by sheets of perforated plastic covering. The seedlings planted over the last 2 weeks across the island, mainly by a large travelling group of Polish farm workers, are covered until ready for picking.
  
  At certain times of the night the fields shimmer in the moonlight like giant skating rinks.

  Polish workers? They'll be Jerzy Royals then.
