    The greatness comes not when things go always good for you,but the greatness comes when you are really tested,when you take,some knocks,some disappointments;because only if youv'e been in the deepest valley can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain.

    I picked four punnets today.
    They are remarkably free of slug and bird damage this year (I forgot to net them, and didn't use any pellets either).
    We'll eat the lot on the way to the South Coast tomorrow (note to self: pack Imodium)

        I am only picking a few a day, but it is my first year and we have only got a few plants. Next year though, we'll be in business.

        Just ordered another gooseberry, 18 rasp canes and 3 of the new purple glencoe rasps. Can't resist purple stuff. Such a sucker.

            Marshalls Seeds Product Detail- 1060-5514: Raspberry Glencoe Canes - Clump-forming

            I meant to delete the 3 plants from my basket when I came back from discussing it with the OH; but honestly, I forget and ordered them as well.

            Really and truly forgot.

                  I know it's expensive, that's why I was going to delete it...
