The message
from contains these words:

Last year there were hundreds of berries on every Blackthorn bush but
this year we'll be
lucky to find a pound in total. (We are in Sheffield). My in-laws in
Sussex and friends in
SE London say the same.
What has happened? There was plenty of blossom.

Late frosts: though I must say, we have plenty here in this part of
Norfolk.

Yes, agreed, we had a lot of late frost this year. Must admit I haven't
checked for any sloes yet but I shall do now
