Stayed up til 1am, pooped, early to bed for me. Off to some amateur boxing tomorrow, madness, but in-law in a bout! He's a scrapper, expecting it to be good. Was fancying camping Subday as I've Monday off, but weather looks crap. Probably the live F1 and a roast instead, and mibbes some fruit picking Monday instead wi the weans

I didn't stay up for the results. Exit poll was enough!! Sounds like a good weekend! Hope your BIL is alright in the fight!! Are you going to make jam??

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Jam, yes, but not until late Sept. Strawbs and rasps all get scranned. Plum jam, apple and bramble. Better start saving jars...

Jam! Hope to have enough fruit to make jam in the coming years. Only planted some bushes a few months ago, and they are still very small. Enjoying having a space to grow stuff in this year (we moved). All be it small.

Oh my friend made a delicious spicy plum jam last year! I loved it!!

I made a chili plum and apple chutney two years ago, and it was magic. But I'm still on 2 jars. My plum last year was too runny, need to follow a recipe closer this year. Maybe with some cinammon. I made loads of crumble too, it's a mature tree with loads of fruit

Sounds fantastic!! I think my friend added cinnamon and/or nutmeg. She also made an indian spiced chutney with the plums.
