Strawbs

Beautiful day. Went fruit picking at Belhaven.

We now have a lot of strawberries. Seriously. Loads. I've eaten them three times already. The little little one doesn't even like them. But she likes picking them. Even when you've said we've got more than enough. Three times :)

I was reminded of my summer jobs in the mid 80s. School holidays = earning 10p a punnet for raspberry, strawberry and gooseberry picking.

Strawberries were grown on the actual ground then... (Imagine?!) So this high up fruit growing malarkey is a welcome innovation :)

After Chernobyl, inspectors would periodically come round and test the fruit for radiation.

Which may explain why I glow in the dark.
