Rain!!
« on: July 06, 2007, 04:42:40 PM »
No end to the stuff in the UK this year.

One good thing to emerge in my garden- Ive a bumper crop of Raspberries. They are larger than any other year, and the rain and lack of sun doesn't seem to stop them ripening - I'm surprised at that.

Yesterday evening I walked out to do some harvesting, and on came the rain. Not to be deterred, I grabbed a big umbrella, and got on with the job and picked a very nice bowl of fruit. Fortunately Ive got a fairly secluded garden, so the men in white coats weren't alerted.

We make jam from our fruit, and Raspberry is very popular.

Hows your garden bearing up to the rain?

If the patient doesn't wear canary yellow pyjamas with red balls and a funnel on his head we stay in Lambeth.  ;D
