Erm, well, I found my ring. Somewhere I thought I'd already looked. *looks embarrassed*
Oh well, I'm glad to have it back.
In other news, today I tried some damsons that my grandparents had bottled in 1974. They were edible but not terribly tasty. They tasted something like prunes and something like compost. In the end we had gooseberries instead, in crumble. They were really recent, only having been bottled in 1997, and they tasted fine.
Moral: Eat bottled fruit within 33 years. After that they're definitely past their best.
