Really? I keep mine in the big jar for at least 3 months, before straining and bottling. Only just got my berries a couple of weeks ago, so they're still in the freezer!

These blackcurrants were picked in the summer of 2015 and the cassis was started shortly afterwards, so they were in the vodka for more than a year before straining and bottling :)


ETA: Sadly my harvest this year was very poor as something got through an unnoticed gap in the netting :(

    • Both of our girls went to Dulwich Orthodontics - both had braces in their  early teams. 
    • Looking at the prices - !!!!  my cut and blow dry usually costs me less than £25  with lowlights around £60.  Adam in Forest Hill is a qualified hair dresser with many years experience.
    • Please report to local police - I think Hillcourt may come under Dulwich Hilll.
    • Like most children they go through food fads!  -the boy was into wraps and satay chicken before Christmas, but abandoned the wraps  over Christmas. Likes Chilli con carne providing there is minimal sauce.. The girl will eat a mild curry, but not cheese, milk or yoghurt. Both will eat pizza, shepherds' pie. roast dinners, sometimes burgers, rarely chips. Their mother batch cooks meals to put in freezer as the nearest supermarket (Asda) is 2- 3 miles down the road and not on a bus route - so they rarely have takeaways/ready meals or eat out.  They both eat fruit and veg daily and there is never a problem getting to eat these. Agree that The Plough can be hit and miss - a friend asked them to cater for a post funeral buffet and the food was terrible and was in short supply with some of the guests going hungry.  She made a complaint and asked for a refund - and after a wrangle got it.
