Jamism must be catching SS we’ve just done some gooseberry, blackcurrent done last week, but not the quantity you do. There again we’re not feeding friends and family.
Apple and plum trees are doing well but pear tree is pathetic, but it’s only 3 years old so maybe i’m expecting to much to soon.
We had some rain the other day, it lasted about 20 seconds and it didn’t even wet the ground, our small garden pond is nearly dry, pond liner is good so must be just evaporation, when i water the garden tonight will drop the hose in for 15 minuets.
In both vehicles and in all bags we’ve started to carry some isotonic drinks and salt tablets, with this heat any exertion and you sweat profusely, if you have to move out quickly with a backpack muscular cramps are last thing you need, and the drinks should be better for rehydration (otherwise athletes wouldn’t use them).
