Put out an Egyptian tour brochure, and you could think of them as Desert
Foxes.

As I walked the dog this afternoon, I noticed the poplars down by the
stream were turning a vivid shade of brown. Autumn is definitely not too
far away. And what happened to the wild blackberries this year? The crop
locally was either non-existent, or very paltry and tasteless.

Fantastic blackberries on dartmoor Jim. They need rain to swell and sun to
ripen properly, like all berries.
