Yep did ours about two weeks ago we used the freezer same as last year.We picked them a lot earlier then usual simply because they were out very early this year and there wasnt that many about round our way. We've just opened last years and its absolutely lovely .

Had to pick all mine early this year, last week in September, even then there was the odd shrivelled one. I went back last week to see what was left, what they were like etc and glad I picked them when I did. What was left were very shrivelled or rotten and would have been no use. I try to make a batch each year and managed to pick a good crop this time. I didn't freeze any and just sat over a couple of evenings watching tv, pricking required amounts with cocktail sticks. So now I have about 8 litres on the go and wont touch that till next year. I have a lot I made last year that has matured rather well, I'll drink some this winter and give some bottles as gifts for Christmas. The rest I will let mature for a good while longer as last years sloes for me were particularly good.
