Dan Oliver will write for food

And next, we make sweeeeet jam

Well, it's that time of year again, and we spent Sunday getting stung, scratched and bitten in search of juicy blackberries. We've been to the same spot for the last four years, and it's always thrown up a bumper crop; this year was no different. In under an hour we managed to collect six pounds of blackberries, which isn't bad going for a pregnant wife and a man with a baby on his back! And the location of our spot? Well, you'll have to find your own. That's all part of the fun, after all.
