Our redcurrants are setting fruit already. Seems pretty early in the year?

oooh! mine are too, thought I was seeing things!  :blink:
small, Welsh and almost certainly bonkers, but can be tamed with Talisker, if required

Mine, too.  All my fruit seems to be very advanced this year.

Mine also, seems much earlier than last year! My strawberries (don't know the variety) produced flowers in around may last year, however, they are all in full flower now and have been for a week!

Most things seem to be earlier this year which is surprising after the hard winter we had

Most of the fruit in my garden is at least two weeks ahead of last year but we had some very cold weather last April which held things back.

The hard winter is very good for currants so you should get a bumper crop this year.
