I have dropped off a document for product testing (what I thought info), dropped DD's shopping in at PO to go back then went to Morries then dropped in to the place I pick Blackberries.
I didn't even get as far as the long hedge; just inside the wall there were bramble LADEN with HUGE fruit.
They are now simmering in a stock pot and a pan (too many for stock pot!) with cooking apples (for pectin) ready to make into jelly.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
