Looked today and 4 more were red, but when you taste them they taste as if they are already past their best! I s'pose they have been 'hanging' about for too long :(
But i think they're all going to go red at once, so there will be a lot of tom sauce going in the freezer, if not many eaten fresh :D

Really! :ohmy:

Which one did you pick?

I'm guessing 2 or 3 days and I'm having Paul Robeson. Had a few Brandywines.

Well, it is Friday night.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

I thought he was from USA?

(OK I expect I've missed a joke somewhere --................. please tell me  :unsure: )

I've thunked --- Black Russian is a cocktail of course, and brandywine goes with it  :D )
