I'm envious. Berkshire doesn't have much of a coastline.

Gosh! I have already.

Hi Nat and welcome. From someone who's heart is still in Yorkshire.

Raspberries and blackberries you can just put in a bag and feeze as they are.

I'll look at the real seeds site, thanks for that. I hate the fact I grow sungold (F1's) because I'd like to save seeds. Shame I like them so much.
