Aw raspberries!!!
You're really good David!!! Clearly my botanical and culinary powers of observation are slipping !! Good grief, did I take my pill today!

I'm not sure about whether berry or not, but surely some kind of pod or budding plant.....I think we're more positive to the subcontinent and environs now.

Outstanding !!! Great observations you guys,


All the best,
Jim
