... BUT ....

I'm now covered in cuts and scratches, bruises, and my hands are now a dirty shade of currant!!! Rolling Eyes

(just can't keep my gloves on me!!) Rolling Eyes

Still the haul has been great this year ... especially as the only fruit bushes that are mine are the gooseberries !!! Cool

12 lbs goosegogs
8 lbs red currants
8 lbs black currants
12 lbs white currants

So far have made Ward's goosegog icecream, 8lbs red currant jelly and a pie Very Happy
