More chilli business

The other month we got this great multi-coloured Bolivian Rainbow Chilli Pepper plant from Herne Hill Market that is now housed in the polytunnel and seems to love it in there so much as we are now getting more great purple flowers. Great stuff!

On a Chilli tip

Thanks to Kit G5KIT in Bristol who sent us these great pictures of his chilli plant and he wrote: “Remember those little chilli seedlings from earlier in the year? We’ve given most of them away, but kept the biggest one – and we took our first crop yesterday. The chillies aren’t very big, maybe 20mm long for the largest ones, but boy do they pack a punch. They’re not called ‘Demon Reds’ for nothing; they’re about 194,000 on the scoville scale of heat!” Wow that is crazy Kit!

He sent a tune too and added: “I do like the way the fruit grows upwards, they’re attractive as well as tasty. We’re going to make some chilli oil from these ones.” Cheers Kit for getting in touch.

Morschen43 on the wire

A big thanks to Steve Barker, Fenny and Jim from the excellent On The Wire for playing Morschen43’s Dark Dread / Toi … , L’Homme … at 1 hour in on the show earlier this morning. Cheers Steve for mentioning Weeds up to me knees also!

The track is off Spike’s new album available on Bandcamp here.

The track above was the tune played before it which is of the crazy dubby trumpet variety. Cheers again Steve!

To listen to the wonderful eclectic programme that is On The Wire check the blogspot here.

It’s also on Totally Radio on Sundays at 6pm here. It’s well worth a listen to say the least.
