I'd better get cracking.
I hope the rain holds off for your walk.

It's starting to rain now - just as I thought I was going to have to go out and water the garden!
I'll be at 14,000 steps by bedtime :T
I started my hampers in February Tilly with whisky marmalade and last month I made some sloe gin with 2014 sloes from the freezer and a bottle of duty free gin. This month it is rhubarb & vanilla and gooseberry & elderflower jam (and possibly strawberry & champagne if I can get enough cheap strawberries), then I'll take a break until the autumn when the hedgerow fruit is readyMortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

Thanks both!
I need to be a bit more organised with the hampers this year as I don't want to repeat the stress of last December...
