Hi, sorry it's so long since I last posted. Just looking for ideas.

I had so many gooseberries this year, I froze 2 big bags. Now I'm running out of space in the freezer. I made a crumble last week, but loads of juice made it very soggy.

Any ideas for using frozen gooseberries?

Thanks

I would be interested to know what sort of wood people are using for their raised beds and also how they attach them. Looking at the RHS website they suggest using pressure treated gravel boards nailed or screwed  to 18inch, 3inch by 3 inch posts set about 1ft in the ground at the corners.
 However I am interested in any alternatives people have found successful.

Non alcoholic- my favorite afternoon drink  is to warm up apple juice and put in the flask with some powdered ginger.

Coffee in the morning though.

I don't do anything that involves Black friday, but some of you might, Brown Friday promises half price seeds from their basic range. I have had good results from these in the past. Just sign up to their newsletter, then when the seeds have come cancel it as they do spam you with a lot of junk.
