Pick enough berries to fill 70cl bottle. Pick over berries & remove stems. Wash, drain & spread on tray to dry. Once dry put into freezer bags for at least a week. After this time place the berries into large jar and cover with 70cl gin or vodka. Seal tightly & place in dark place to infuse for at least 1 month. Give jar a shake each time you pass. Drain liquid from berries & filter into suitable bottles. Seal tightly & store in cool dark place for at least 8 weeks before serving. Ideal Christmas gifts

Had a very interesting evening at Glasdir, Llanrwst yesterday with a number of local businesses sharing knowledge, skills and ideas. Canine & Co gave a motivational skills talk looking at SWOT analysis and self talk (no, I don't need locking up) & John from Forest Software gave informative input on SEO (I was chuffed I knew what this meant). Thanks to everyone for making the evening work so well &
