    Haven't had any in a while, hopefully can find some sweet ones on the road. I'm also yet to have lychee because I refuse to spend a fortune with the roadside vendors. Anybody with a guinep or lychee tree? ...Please :smile:

    i have not had guinep in years. use to love it when i lived in jamaica, especially the really big sweet ones. some of them were abit abit too sour or stainy though.

    how long is the season expected to last? will i still catch some if i am in jamaica about end sept? i hope the mango season can stretch that far too.

    You might catch few guineps...if I remember correctly guineps were the nightmare of mothers at the start of the school season because every new uniform get stain up...lol

    I really dont think many things like mango have a season anymore....ask those people round Bog Walk Gorge who never out of it and who sell them for an arm and a leg and want your head to go with it too.

    What part of London? I'm in NW (Harrow) quite often. I lived in Harrow for a bit and then Barnet but quickly moved back to Reading.. I'm a country girl at heart. :bigsmile:

    I have been based in Cricklewood (NW)for almost 5 years. Prior to that I lived in Battersea (SW) for about 2 and a half years. I am also a country girl, only in London because of work. When I first arrived in UK I was living in Devon
