I'd love some quinces - we have been making pomegranate syrup and drinking that with lime and soda but keen to try the quince, lime and cinnamon version too. sounds yum! I could trade you the next bunch of bananas...not ready for a few weeks yet though...I have added you as a friend, if you accept we can email each other. I am opposite Eden Park so not far away. oh, and would love to try pheasant, and most other things :-).

It also seems that we are not too far away from one another which always helps.
