More wild foods cooking and brewing

You may recall that last weekend I picked three carrier bags of apples I found growing wild. These are eating apples and we have muched our way through some. But we are also cooking with them. Another 2 large pies came off the production line tonight.
I posted recently about making elderflower champagne. We have 50 bottles brewing. Tonight we tried one of the ones we have made at our house in Gateshead. Very pleasant! Unfortunately, the batch I made at our home in London has refused to brew. This is a bit of a pain and I can't work out what's gone wrong. I am, against my own advice, going to add yeast to the bottles in London. Watch this space for news.
