The message
from Anne Welsh Jackson contains these words:

When the snow clears, I'll take a look at the remnants of the hop,
part of which I sent Rusty, and will see if there's enough to send
you another bit. Hopefully there should be... I bought that hop
from Poyntfield, on the Black Isle, at least 15 years ago.

If you remember Anne, you left me two pieces at the YHA in Crianlarch
many years ago. I still have them, one in the tunnel and one on a
wall outside. The tunnel one needs replanting and splitting and the
outside one is in urgent need of re-siting. I will split the tunnel
one soon and so shouldn't neeed any further addition to the stock -
but a big thank-you anyway. I still wonder what breed of hop they
are - at the time you said that you weren't sure? They make decent
beer though :-)

(Gosh! Crianlarich YH: haven't been there for fifty years.) But these
hops: are they male and female created ye them? I thought one needed an
m for every so many f: is that not the case?
