Strange. They must have changed the packet sizes. The boxes I have here contain 2 sachets at 175g each.

"�14.11 according to the current catalogue."

That is really cheap.

f anyone in London would like to do me a favour and add 25kg of rye flour to their Suma order, let me know. I'd of course be happy to pick up.

And Simon: you have to tell me where your mill is when we finally get over to France. Hope you are all well.

Cheers,

Anders

Fine thanks. We'll have a ride out there next time you're here.

Nice one, Tahir. Let me know when you are ordering and I'll bring you the money.

We are still eating the chillies from the plants you gave us. I've moved the best plants into the allotment greenhouse now. Going to try and grow them bigger next year.

No, not dried. Eaten them as fast as we could, pickled some and swapped others for veg. Hope they do as well next year.

My chili bins are in the greenhouse too and still struggling on. I read on here somewhere that it is possible to overwinter the plants for an early start next season. Anyone know how?

They will overwinter in a cool greenhouse but to be honest the overwintered ones have never given better amounts or earlier chillis than ones started at the usual time. You also run the risk of keeping any disease over the winter which would usually annually die off with the plants.

We used the service a week or so ago and the order turned up fine. Much easier than ordering over the phone and you can build your basket over a few days which we always fine useful.
