    Actually it was the 8th which was donated to the Esher chilli testing and quality assurance labs... hopefully we should be getting certification from them shortly!

    It's supposed to be bright this weekend so fingers crossed :)

    Growing your own chillies... sounds interesting:) Maybe I would like some home-cooked spicy food someday, in that case, will need an import licence for your home grown organic chillies.

    My parents grow chillies. We had one set that set your fingers alight on just touch......

    We donated a pot to our elderly neighbours, who are rather curious on all this 'foreign' stuff....They enjoyed it ....

    Have you tried growing corriander, mint and other herbs? They grow really well here, and are absolutely delicious.

    I think I now know what to get you, if you ever have a) a house party, b) I actually attend .... ;)

    Hey if they don't get much sunshine there just send them over to Pakistan, right now it is 46 C here in Lahore so I think they will grow much quicker :).

    Shirley - I would have thought you were used to spicy food!!



    Ushi - I once touched my eyes after handling chillies, horribly painful experience. It's amazing how something so small can be so violent! This is the first thing I've tried to grow, if this goes well the sky's the limit!



    Adeel - 46 degrees C!! My goodness, how on earth do you manage to survive in that? Anything about about 30 is far to hot for me!
