We've had a vine behind the garden shed in our small London garden for decades, largely ignored. Turns out 2020 has been a great year for grapes. Next stop grape & rosemary jelly - once we've washed out 100 empty jars!

@DawnNeesom I know how to make jelly and chutney - too many bad memories of my father's home made plonk to consider the alternatives πŸ˜‚

@albertopletti No idea - small, lots of pips but very sweet. The vine was here long before I moved in

@DrSarahJarvis Jelly? Surely we're hoping for the first few bottles of "Chateau Jarvis" - a delightfully sweet little red πŸ˜‰

@sally_gibbons I might need to - we certainly haven't got room to store it!

@FieldHockeyNut Most of it was hidden by a tree and had grown up above the shed but still definitely not full sunlight. We were stunned
