Yum! So British folklore holds that today (29th September, Michaelmas) is absolutely THE last day to pick blackberries.
The reason being, Archangel Michael cast Lucifer down from heaven, where he landed in some brambles. Apparently he was so pissed off that he actually pissed on the blackberries, cursing them!
Anyway, there may be a way, for the careful cunning folk, to employ those piss-cursed berries for baleful works, with some ingenuity.
Jinxed jam for a twat neighbour?
Fruit crumble for a hateful colleague?
