Ambivalent about kiwis. I cut them in half and eat with a spoon

Mick, they're better if you cut them in half and throw them out for the birds and animals

Unlike me to take a thread off topic

JohnD I'm now reminded of one of the Carry On films (maybe Henry) when Sid James started to eat a banana. One of his courtiers said "Sire you're supposed to peel it" Which of course he did and ate the skin.

I wouldn’t pick either Hampshire or North Yorkshire but with a gun to my head, North Yorkshire. This would be because of property prices.

I rarely buy kiwi fruit, but I don’t mind them.

Secondly Kiwi Fruit yes
Yes well aware of property values and moving back to N. Yorks would be a huge gain from that perspective. But my family are South so it’s difficult. I also need to be back close to the sea.

North Yorkshire is our 2nd home, it's where we're going to retire to hopefully.

Kiwi... take it or leave it.

No sane person can ever accuse you of taking a thread off topic!

Would depend where my family and friends were - if still in Surrey I’d find a nice lil Hampshire village.

Kiwi - when I’m in the mood yes!
