Sloe Train running


Sloe Gin Recipe:
Went sloe picking this afternoon at Ashstead Common, which most days is a half hour journey from Victoria. The common is several hundred acres of wonderful woodland with some incredible open areas full of twisted beautiful oak trunks left after a forest fire. We had a great time, along lunch in the Star pub, sat in the marvellous autumn sunshine and lovely walk back through the trees to Epsom.
I’m not going to go into details about sloe gin as the wonderful sloebiz tells you all you need to know. Why not give it a go do it next weekend and you’ll have some delish sloe gin for Christmas. Cheers
