It is unlikely that LTNS, after his gesture to the Food Festival (prunes from the London Road), will be in any state to submit himself to even the mildest of these beguiling chillis.

I viewed the photos for 2006 event and it looked good, but you can never tell can you.....
No sign of a prune curry.

Heard some good reports.
If you like 'em hot, it's worth a look.

Look forward to your report should you go.

That's a good idea Daveb, if I go a report will be made. I will go if the weather is okay. I am a chilliholic and eat them with most meals.

Has anybody noticed how food keeps - er - repeating on this Site?

That is, of course, if Greggs counts as food. Some of us have called that into question.

We went to the marina event last year, Dingo - it was pretty good with a big range of foods to try and buy. I notice that they're charging a £2.50 entrance fee this year which puts me off a bit. The products are not cheap so it makes it an even more expensive trip.

Mind you uno mirena parking is free, not very green really but suits me as I have to drive.

Miriam,
I have really enjoyed that type of icecream and also chillie chocolate. The mix of chille and sweet tastes goes back to Roman times. Yum!

Agreed, Dingo, although when it was at the marina you could pop into Asda after the festival, buy the chilli products you'd eyed up at the festival for a fraction of the cost then get your parking ticket refunded.

Yes it is marvelous. It just underlines the variety of what is out there in cyberspace.

On the subject of the price of the products. I think that on one level they are expensive but the hotter sauces last a long time.
The sell by dates can be ignored, no germ or bacteria would dare. Me and Mrs D bought a load of sauces some years ago in an aborted business venture attempt. They are now selling at a fiver a bottle. I reckon we will have enough personal stocks for another five years yet.

I should make clear that apart from spending loads of cash I have no connection to the company.
