harpgirl - I hope you can find a custard apple somewhere, they are yummy & got their name cos of their custardy taste. I originally met them under bad circumstances. Our office went to the conference room of a 3/4 star hotel for a @#$%^& boring Sales Training session. The only good thing about the day was the custard apples on the buffet & I got addicted.

Great happiness today when I went to the fruit market - PLUMCOTS are around at their ususal price of around $16 per kilo when other plums are $6 or $7 per kilo, but I have 5 delicious plumcots in various stages of ripeness just waiting to be eaten. They are a new fruit & not many growers plant them, but I assume as more people eat them, more will be planted & prices will fall.

Now does a plumcot go with strawberry yohurt, or will I wait tll tomorrow to eat one? Answer - Put yoghurt back in fridge & get a plumcot. I just patted one & it's not quite ready to eat, so I will go to bed on the anticipation of a plumcot tomorrow

It's getting closer to the noise of New Year & I want to be asleep before everyone starts yelling their lungs out. bah humbug to noisy new year revellers.
