catspaw, I really would like to introduce you to the pleasures of the liquid perfection of sloe gin as a late night accompaniment to some rousing singing.

Sloes are completely inedible, gin? - well....... maybe an 'aquired taste' after running the bunnies down

But, put them together - nectar :)

And you can make a great choc truffle with the leftover sloes - ask the guests at Crane Driver's birthday :)
