Had my first real pick of blackberries today, about a lb of them, I've
been picking the odd one or 2 for almost 2 weeks, so blackberries and
apple with clotted cream tonight.

We've already had around 10 lb. It is a cultivated variety with huge
fruits but unfortunately they have a pith. Not so good for use in pies
and jams so spouse is freezing them at the moment then plans to make a
large batch of blackberry jelly - she can sieve out the pith that way.
