There two trains of thought on the Yew Berry, people won't eat it because it has the consistency of snot, but on the other hand, if you have a sweet tooth, it's sweeter than anything you'll find in the sweet shop.
To be honest though it's not worth the risk, though the de-seeding is a simple process, you can never be sure if the seed is undeveloped, and may leak toxins into the fruit. It's worth leaving therefore.
As for today it's 12C lovely a mild for a late October day, no frost last night, and the flowers are still going strong.
I have some Begonia semperflorens (aka wax Begonias), that just keep on flowering, but this is not unusual, they are very tough indeed, and will go through a winter in flower if it is mild enough - I saw many go through the winter of 2006 completely in flower, but the lowest temperature that entire winter was 0.2C!
Zonal Geraniums (Pelargoniums) are still going strong, despite some yellowing to the leaves due to the cooler weather, and some tuberous Begonias still going well.
It's all looking rosy (excuse the pun), with no frost due for the remainder of November into December as far as I can tell.
