The Red Currants are RED!

Sorry, I am a little excited about this. Have been waiting on this fruit ripening for a while. With all the wind we had in early spring, I was scared that it would all get blown away but it hung on and is finally ripening up.
I have never eaten fresh red currants before and am really looking forward to it. Winnie wont let me try one yet, but I really, really want to, even if it's still a bit tart.
I am a bit disappointed with the black currant, as it did not flower this year, but there is plenty of growth from last year and new growth this year so I am hopeful for next season.
