Natures harvest


We have found a secret supply of blackberries on the land that used to be allotments. At one time the allotments stretched the full length of Churchill Way but sadly demand for building land meant that they have slowly been reduced. Part of the land is now lying empty so we thought we would explore and found the most wonderful blackberries that I have ever seen. Presumably they are cultivated varieties that have been left to grow wild but we managed to fill a four litre tub very quickly and you could hardly notice where we had been.

We also seem to have a lot of yellow tomatoes and peppers. As there are too many to eat, I have frozen a lot and made bolognaise with some. It is true that there is a lot to the aesthetic quality food and yellow bolognaise really doesn't work
