More Tales of Blackberries

Tuesday afternoon I clambered onto the shed roof in the garden... for this is where the lovingly tended blackberry hangs out. And I took a picture for you all.

Nice thorns too eh! After a little time I picked about 500g of these yummy, juicy, big berries (lots of rain recently has plumped them right up). So my total haul for this year's second batch of blackberry wine is 4.9 kg. Should be enough for 3 gallons of wine. Together with the 2 gallons started last week thats not bad. Haven't frozen any blackberries this year, so I'm not sure if I'll be making a repeat of last years Blackberry & Elderberry. But if the weather and the available time works out then who knows, it may still happen.
