Very interesting history lesson here Julie on the Kiln etc but I have to say, when Luke said you weren't interested in the Kiln and then you suddenly got your scarf caught on the brambles, I bust out laughing. :0) I agree with Luke 100% in regards to restoring this part of Mapperton, because it is HISTORY and it would be nice to see a video of it being cleared and restored as best you can for future generations to pop along and visit! In the not too distance future, the way things are going, these will be forgotten forever and that is a shame if they're not looked after now! Can't wait to see you opening your gifts! :0) x

Julie,you should go blackberry picking one day and make a film of it. Its a bit late now but maybe next summer in July or August. Its a traditional thing. As kids we did every year with our Mum and Dad. It was great fun and being kids we didn't worry about pricks and scratches. The other berries were Elderberries,not poisonous,you can make wine with them if you wanted to.

It's just the weather, isn't it? :) I absolutely loved the fun banter and the part where Julie is more interested in the berries hahaa I would've done the same. :) the green berry looks like Schezuan pepper.
