OK, I tried it again and this time I saw the post.  I am grateful for 
all the advice, and will put it to use later on today.  No idea why it 
is working sometimes!

How 'bout them gooseberries?  I checked my Glenndale after the inches 
and inches of rain and was horrified to find it lying flat on the 
ground!  I gently (ouch) lifted it up and tied it to the stake better 
[ouch] and noticed it was loaded with gooseberries.  Lesson learned:  
when you "stool" the gooseberry, be prepared to support that stalk it in 
a very wet spring! 

My Hinnomaki Yellow is trying to take over the world, so's the Red.  and 
I pruned these plants!  [ouch] 

This year I had moved them [OUCH]  inside the fence in the garden so 
that I could actually get some gooseberries.  Something out there Really 
Likes them.  Better than cherries, mulberries, etc.
