    haha, Wayne, I watched that to. I really like the way it's filmed and voted for the raspberry, but I do like both. The strawberry is over rated.... sometimes

      Sorry, Big Fella, I can't vote!

      All my life I've preferred Rasgogs, but this year the Strawbs have been soooooooooo sweet!

                Rasberry all the way.
                Whenever I'm at my mum's and she tries to feed me any jam other than her home-made raspberry I have to remind her what the superior fruit is!

                    Generally speaking, raspberries do it for me, but in a good year with lots of sun and rain, strawberries, especially the early ones, are just soooooo good too

                      I love them both but decided on Raspberries
                      the deciding factor was that in the past I've tasted several bad tasting strawberries, but so far have never had a bad raspberry

                        Despite the seeds sticking in my teeth it has to be raspberries.

                        nb. Can't stand Valentine Warner - he's always flapping his arms about and I really don't understand why he has to shout at the camera.

                          As a standalone fruit it has to be strawberry. Picked and eated straight from the plant...

                            What Matt said. I have no idea what my strawb yields were this year, as none of them made it to the kitchen. They were eaten straight from the plant, between car and door!!

                              Me too, but virtually all the raspberries make it home. Mum used to love strawberries, her birthday is late June and they were always her birthday treat. Now she prefers raspberries, but only since I've been growing them, she says they're much better than shop bought.
                              Into each life some rain must fall........but this is getting ridiculous.
