Hi,

This is my first post and would like to know if it's ok to post pictures on
here.

I need to identify what looks like a wild fruit It has the appearance of a
strawberry but the fruit is round and approx 1" in diameter and the plant it
is on has a slight prickly runner.The inside of the fruit is white and very
soft.

Any help would be appreciated.



No, you can't post pictures on here - it's a text only newsgroup. There are
various free online image hosting companies, such as Tinypic
http://tinypic.com/ so you could put your photo there and post a link to it
(or your ISP will probably offer free webspace). That way we can all see it.
There are binary newsgroups, but some of us (for instance those of us using
News Individual Net) don't have access to those.

Your fruit does sound rather like a wild strawberry by the way. They have
tiny fruit.
