Strawberry related disaster

Well--- it seems that he late frost in Lancashire nipped the fruiting buds of the planted strawberry plants and ----no fruit! Eddie Cowpe up at Huntleys has uprooted his plants and will replant for next year!
The overall problem has a knock on effect of depriving the local artisan jam and preserve makers of their local fruit. Now transport costs kick in and travel is expensive now. Costs will rise!!  We can be sure that the quality will be good though!!
