Hyperlocal post this, but if you've missed the Fast and the Furious movies and want some car-based thrilling action, I recommend watching senior citizens reverse out of parking spaces at the Parade at Yelverton. Hair-raising stuff. #Dartmoor

Adventures in jam making. Finally jamming last year's loganberries to make space in the freezer for this year's fruit. Added in some of this year's loganberries, gooseberries, jostaberries, blackcurrants and raspberries. It may be a disaster but just for right now it looks awesome.

Picked today, more on the way. I'm thinking fools, jams, crumbles...

Puppy leaves some of her breakfast, which will be given to the hedgehogs tonight, while sneaking out and eating leftover hedgehog food I put out last night. It's the circle of life. Or hedgehog food. One of those.

Brighton people. I've been referred one David Barry Arnold (born 1950) who died in Hailsham in May. I'm told he played music in Brighton when younger. Guitar I think, he had one in his care home room. Would be cool to locate his gig buddies and get them to play at his service. Anyone out there?

Grape jelly attempted with home-made apple pectin. No set after a few attempts, bringing it up to 105°C and looking for wrinkles in the jelly on a cold plate, but it was setting on the spoon and on the sides of the pan, so have jarred it. Might shortly have several jars of grape syrup.

Pup has had no accidents for long enough that she's been granted free access to the house. So far, so good. Even though she will still steal my socks given half a chance.

Big pan of chopped up apple thinnings boiled for two hours, strained through a tea cloth overnight and reduced on the hob and we have apple pectin for jams and jellies. The meths is to test the pectin as it coagulates it.

Things to do but I'm pinned down by a knackered puppy. She had her last training class (for the time being) this morning.

Apparently this needs repeating (again) Dhara Vyas, chief executive of industry body Energy UK tells Carbon Brief that it is “crystal clear what has driven electricity bills up in the UK…it’s the wholesale costs, driven by the price of gas”. www.carbonbrief.org/...

Been watching The Last Voyage of the Demeter. In the 'crew-at-sea-doomed-by-unspeakable-horror' genre it pales next to The Terror (available on ITVX).

Tucci in Italy on Disney+ is lovely stuff. I enjoyed his CNN series but this is going to places I was less familiar with and is more intimate in tone.
