Ah! Grapes CathyML. Those from SA are especially nice, sweet and in perfect condition, as with all the other SA fruit that arrives here. Anna and I only ever buy SA fruit, without doubt the best!

Thinks.......that's probably enough to throw them, to maybe forget what the thread was about.

I swear that here in SA we only get the windfalls and all decent fruit is exported, I have not seen fruit in our shops in SA for many years that would equal the size and quality of the SA fruit I saw in UK and Europe.  Very frustrating

Joking apart CathyML, the fruit really is the best. Cape Fruit, excellent!
