Hi C-H's,

Ah, happy memories of cheese and mango pickle sandwiches!
Unfortunately "good" and "strong" can rarely be used to describe the
cheese available in the US. Most supermarkets carry cheddar cheese
labelled "Extra Sharp" but it would be labelled "Extremely Mild" in
the UK. I sometimes dream about genuine "Farmhouse" cheddar with the
three black cheeses trademark.
Actually I'm in the mood for a little rave:
As for a baked King Edward potato with butter and cheese you can
forget that too. The "baking" potatoes don't taste of anything. Apple
pie and cheddar? Sorry. There are no cooking apples to be had.
Welcome to the land of bland sweetness. Can anyone send me some
Bramley seeds or have the French decided to make them illegal?
There - that's better.
I put some more pepper pix on my web page if anyone is interested. Be
warned that the images are large and will take a while to load over a
modem connection.

Click on the little pepper. Thanks again for the seeds. I wish that
while I had the digital camera I had remembered to take a picture of
the Bolivian Rainbow or Black Cluster aka Black Cubans or Zambique
(? my memory's going) that Diane sent me. Next time.
