This has flushed me out of the lurk mode I've been in since I 
resubscribed a couple of weeks ago. Blame Tony for my rejoining.

Hi all. :-) I've finally come out of the other end of that dark hole of 
work I've been in the last few years and am hoping I can actually grow 
some chillies this year, landscaping timing and water willing. I still 
have a few 3-4 year-old chilli plants in the garden (almost all from 
seeds I swapped with list members), but they haven't survived our 4-year 
drought very well. Wish rain for Sydney!

H and I had a lovely time with Tony here with us a couple of months ago 
(we went on a month's holiday just as Tony was coming back from his). 
Ever the gracious guest, Tony was kind enough to bring us some dried hab 
powder. Tony, that powder drove all the way around Australia with us and 
brightened many a camp breakfast. Now H is making mutterings about 
wanting more Inner Beauty-style hot sauce. There will be more sauce 
making in my future.

Now, Alex, Linda; the word "ranchslider" is Kiwi-ese for a glass sliding 
door!
