Nothing at the moment - I'm 100 miles away.
I hope Ms.G has punched down the cap on the one remaining 2nd run (Merlot skins + strawberry/raspberry).
I have a horrible feeling it will need racking now, so I might have to do that when I get home tonightPete the Instructor

I visited a friend after work today, and as such came home a different way.
So I found a couple new very heavy with fruit elderberry trees
I also manage to pick 600g of blackberries.
I really need to bottle, to start more... but work is getting in the way of a well needed bottling frenzyInsecure people try to make you feel smaller.
