Not seen them in Dikes yet but hoping they will be by the weekend. I probably have 3 or 4 rolling around the bottom of the freezer from last year - the few that escaped the brewing bucket

On sale in Sherborne this week - 60p a pound from the market stall, 79p from Stokes - but they were organic, allegedly...

Bought three pounds of them on Friday afternoon for making marmalade. £1 per kilo in Arbury, Cambridge.

We don't usually get them here till end of Jan or even Feb. Something in the idea of a slow spread of Sevilles through the countyr, then ?

So they're heading north and fanning out across the country. Where did they come ashore?

We have ours.

2 cases of oranges, a case of grapefruit and a case of lemons. 4 batches prepared today! I will be on marmalade for the next fortnight I should think!

Mine just about to go into the pan - 2kg at 96p per kilo. Quite small this year.

Howard's just phoned to say he's bought the last two Kilo bags in Morrisons - £1.09 a bag.

He'll be on the lookout for more in the branch in Wimbledon come Monday.

Bought a load today to try the wine recipes from Gil and Cab. Also will put some of the peel into a beef stew - yummy.

So far we have made 96 pints of marmalade, not sure of the weight, but I counted the quart jars instead.
