Got the rucksacks on and went out blackberrying, they taste wonderful when they're warm from the sun shining on them, but they'll taste just as good in a dessert in the middle of January when it's freezing cold and blowing a full on winter gale, plus it'll be a great reminder of what a lovely summer we've had.
The hedges are loaded with fruit where we go, but most of the crop isn't ripe yet, so maybe next week or the week after we'll be back out and fill some more tubs up for the parents (might even score a dinner invite as a reward!). It's a bit daft to leave free delicious fruit rotting on hedges for the want of putting some boots and a rucksack on and spending family time in the fresh air having fun.

We did that the other day too! Mrs Cookie has been baking Apple and Blackberry pies Normally eaten with custard or ice cream
Trying to put off my first job of the day until we've had our morning meeting... hacksawing 3 samples from 6 parts at 0700 is not what I want to be doing
Decided I couldn't hang around waiting for a set of VTR-specific carbon Arrows any longer. They seem incredibly rare and hard to find... so I re-sleeved and re-packed my satin Arrows. Not strictly genuine, but it's only the sleeve. Finally got the look I want and they sound great from the re-packing too.
Cheers all, I need to get a decent pic of them on the bike... went to Oulton Park yesterday for BSB but forgot to snap a pic while I was out. Very pleased with them though!
