A friend who is renting a house has some berries in their garden
about the
size of large grapes and a dark black colour and wishes to identify
them. Since this group does not accept photos, how might I post a

photo
that could
be looked at by those in this group please?


I use this website when I need to do this:


www.tinypic.com


Upload your photo as indicated on the tinypic site, then, just copy
and past a link to it in your UKRG post, and people can go and see
your pickie.

They're not berries, they're damsons!


I would have said sloes, a quick taste will determine (if sloes it will feel
as if all your teeth are being sandpapered!)

Aren't they a bit big for sloes, bearing in mind the coin on the photo
for scale?
If they're damson, don't bother making anything other than jam with
them - the jam is divine.
