    Isn't illicit marmalade grounds for divorce and handing over half your future income these days?

    Thanks for the compliments, n5gooner and realityhack, I really appreciate it. Perhaps I should hang up the data models and get out the pinny full time?

    Cojak, I'll PM you with the order fulfilment details. Thanks.

    If you want another jar, n5gooner, I should be able to sort you out. It might be a giant jar though (previously used for pickled onions I think).

    Perfect

    Just received the parcel - opened it up and shamelessly grabbed a spoon and had some.
    Really nice - rich flavour, sweet with the tang of the peel - thick cut. Cheers LB!

    (The poison hasn't kicked in yet - no drug symptoms at the mo - pulse normal, so far so good. If I don't post anymore after tonight I'm one of LB's statistics!)

    I know all about that "plan". It didn't work then and it won't work now.

    True. Like the Timothy Dalton Bond film "License to Kill", originally entitled "License Revoked" (seeing as that's what it's about) but changed after advance screenings showed that 80%+ of Americans didn't know what "revoked" meant.

    But that aside, do you want some marmalade?

    What's your opinion?
    No complaints here. In fact it's been the nicest marmalade I've done in a while. I used organic ones, don't know what your mum was using or if that made a difference?

    I charge a premium for those jars.
