You want to know how I tell that my blackcurrants are ripe and ready for picking...I'll tell you. I keep a sharp eye out for the Blackbird who appears in my garden and seems remarkably friendly with me (taking worms from the hand etc.) See when my back is turned? The feathered thief is onto the currants and my dreams of ice cream and tangy berries dissapears down his gullet.
Such is Nature, such is life!
