I dropped a quick line to Dan this morning with regards all this hassle being caused.

I come on here to get information and to chat and exchange ideas with interesting people, not to read badly spelled rubbish such as he or she insists on inflicting us with.  >:(

Tee Gee is only get the response she/he/it deserves for be self severing, being an elitist snob and for attacking my little brother on another board last year.

Maybe I should post the posts of teegee to show what real trouble maker it is.

I've bought some sequestered iron that I'm going to treat them with so I'll see if that helps.

Let us know if it does Plot69, I'd be interested to find out, not grown raspberry before so this all WAY over my head lol  ;D

well that retort of the so called great gardener has probably sorted it - doubt you'll be here for much longer, gone in a puff  with the help of that flame gun of '69's ;D

there's no need for you, Tee Gee,  to feel you have to qualify yourself and I'm sure that's the opinion of all

must be the weather

I sure will. Raspberries are not my speciality either and the fact that they bear bright yellow fruit led be to think they might bear yellow or at least variegated  leaves as well which is why I asked.

Sow it, grow it, eat it.

I wonder if the problem is iron deficiency caused by too much lime/chalk? Excess Calcium prevents the uptake of iron.
This is a problem for me in part of my garden, however, my plants look very similar, but I still crop.  If (and it is an if) this is the case, the best solution is to acidify the soil around the plants with a lot of compost mulch, this may help.

I recognise this persons posts, unfortunately. i used to use the BBC website a lot but I think this is the same person who just made in unpleasant. Tee Gee may remember too.

It is incorrect to say that it isn't a mineral deficiency because the new leaves are not affected. Plants will transport the required mineral from the older leaves to the younger leaves. Raspberries are often affected by iron deficiency on alkaline soils. The leaves yellow but the veins stay green which you can see on your leaves.
