More blackberries this afternoon. another full pot & more to pick still.
A lovely warm afternoon...the summer is back!!
Since I went down the field yesterday the gate had been closed & I couldn't get it open so had to crawl through the maize rows to get to the blackberry hedge.
Three good things:
1, I talked to Max in NZ this morning & he told me he had put some Smarties in my room...seeing it will be February before I go I doubt they will still be there!
2. The new electric blanket in place, of course that is why the warm weather is back!!!
3. Out tonight with friends for a meal so no cooking!
I love the determination to get to the * forbidden fruit *--- where there is a will ,there is a way !! Love the capture of the tunnel through the field of corn & Tui inspecting the berries !! My mouth is watering in the thought of all those blacberries !
@fueast Well it's sort of wild in that it isn't for human consumption only cattle but it is a properly sown crop,,,there are about 75 acres of the stuff round our house...like a warren!!
Bless Tui in the jungle! I'm looking forward to a report on what happens when the embrocation starts being warmed up by the blanket - could be a good cold cure as well!
Well you are very good going to all that trouble to pick blackberries , it is not good for ones hands mine are scratched and seem to have a purple tinge under my nails.
@snowy Same here Diana & the day before we had the meet up I had had my nails done for the very first time in my life....a nice French polish in that shellac stuff...not looking too good now!
@judithg Harry hasn't had his side of the blanket on yet Judith & of course buying that blanket has turned the weather back to summer....no improvement on the knee yet!!
Oh me too - did you know they are filled with orange flavoured chocolate while all the other colours are just milk chocolate/!
