Blackberrying

Had a very successful and enjoyable time blackberrying with David, Geri, Emma and Catrina.
Pierce and Michelle were on their way to come but as there were 4 of us we had finished picking before they got as far as Morden. David showed us where there was an apple tree and David and Geri climbed the tree to pick some apples. Then Emma got on Geri's shoulders to get to some hard to reach ones.

When we got back I made lots of jam after a quick call to David's Mum to ask her how to make it and she had a great suggestion for the lack of jam jars. So in the end I made 8 "mugs" of jam and 2 blackberry and apple pies. Will add Peggy's recipe for jam to the family recipe book although this is going a bit slow owing to the lack of response so will have to chivvy a few people along
