Yes the actual thing BRAMBLE JELLY, and it even says HEDGEROW too! Whooo hoooo!
I now seem to have Bramble Jam coming at me from all directions (a huge thank you to those of you who have supplied it for me) .....I might have to include this stimuli in a few more stories with the amount I am gradually acquiring.
Next stop Dagfields http://www.dagfields.co.uk/ hoping to find something WOW to include in my story. For those of you who haven't experienced Dagfields - well - let's say it is not quite your average kind of shopping experience!
Unfortunately I didn't find that WOW thing I was looking for - however the visit fulfilled the Rudge annual pilgrimage, where once a year the family Rudge set ourselves a challenge - this year it was to buy an item for £1 or less which best suits your personality!! Not sure why I didn't win with this entry.... I mean the title says it all!
Anyway I digress.....back to my venture.....my resources (stimuli) are coming along nicely however one particular sensory resource is proving very difficult to get. I am trying to capture the smell of woodsmoke - but this is a little bit tricky. How come when you have a garden fire or go to a bonfire your clothes smell smoky for ages? Yet trying to capture (and more importantly retain) that smell in a tupperware pot - well it's just not happening. I have one last idea of something that may work - it means another trip out and probably a few funny looks from people - but hey ho - never a dull moment. I will let you know if I am successful. Watch out people of Wilmslow...that's the only clue I am giving at the moment.
