Sounds like habaneros to me. YES! You're absolutely right. I just looked habaneros and found a picture of them - that's the lovely little hotties! Cheers, now I have a name for my babies   |

Homegrown chillis are great. I usually get a big jalapeno and a high cropping medium-heat one, then a little decorative thing with small fruit that blows your head off for the bathroom windowsill.

Aha, thanks for the pic too  Yep, the middle ones were how they were when I got given them, pale and orange, and that was the exact size too. When I first got them I made the mistake of putting two of them into a chilli, even though I'd been told they were totally hot. My oesophasgus melted and my innards turned to mush with a speed that would make Ebola weep with envy. I shan't make that mistake again. |

They sell Naga Jolokia chillis here in Sydney they're from Assam in India. Sweet mother of Jesus  even thinnest wafer slices of them will destroy the toughest of iron cast guts. |

Halal or otherwise, i personally wouldn't touch a Domino's pizza with a barge pole lol!
If there is demand for Halal pizza in that area for Dominos i really can't see the problem. If people don't like it, go somewhere else, Pizza Express maybe.

Q: What do the gynecologist and the Pizza deliveryman have in common?
A: They both get to smell the goods but neither one of them can eat it.

Can I just ask, whilst we're on the subject. How is it that garden centres run clean out of seed potatoes every bloody year? Do they not think "hmm. We ran out last year. We'll get some more in this time"?
I mean, it's not even like it's particularly late in the year to start chitting your first earlies - it's about the right time.
It makes me FURIOUS. This isn't what I pay my licence fee for.

Why don't you just put a king edward from the shops in?
They grow perfectly well in my veg basket at home, so would probably do OK in soil.

The potatoes I grow are from ones in the kitchen that I don't use up before they get all sprout-y.. I just stuck them in the pots of soil. Saved me buying any from a shop and they turned into lovely baby new potatoes all the same. |

Because
a) you get more interesting, tasty varieties*
b) they grow better and you get a better crop
c) they are much less likely to get disease
*as long as the sodding garden centre doesn't RUN OUT.

I'm waiting for my Board gardening nemesis, Mingecampbell, to pop up and tell me he got his seed potatoes ages ago, loads of them, all lovely varieties, and they are chitting away nicely in his "potting" shed...
