I found some berries on a tree near our house which I thought were sloes - I tried one, and it sooked all the moisture from my mouth, plus it looks exactly like a miniature round plum (about the size of a 5p to 1p piece). However, the bush was totally free of thorns. So, from googling, it looks like it may be a bullace (and is definitely NOT deadly nightshade! I did check before trying one! :o).
however, I was just wondering if anyone else has collected bullace before, and if so, were they good for making vodka/gin? and does this even sound like a bullace?!

sloes or bullace? or something more sinister?
