Heaven Preserve Us

We have had a good crop of blackcurrants from one bush. We also had lots of redcurrants but they were raided by some wily critters who managed to circumnavigate the net!



Jam was the order of the day. It's not my best, the fruit is a little chewy. I didn't soften them long enough I expect.



But the flavour is good nonetheless.

Holiday Fun

Having a great time in St Ives our most favourite place. Plenty of sunshine, sea and gorgeous pasties.



It's a blooming long journey but well worth it.




Fresh tea in a tin mug on the beach just can't be beaten. (Unless it's cider in the tin mug of course!)
