Yes its true, I need my temperature taken - Im having a mid life Country Womens Institute moment - thanks to all your postings, I have spent a lot of time reading and have been inspired to attempt chutney. I am what has been referred to as a "basic cook", but I might have found my calling with Chutney / Relish! Well, to be honest, they are more of a thick chunky sauce consistancy - perhaps I shall call them saucie-relish! 
In the last couple of weeks I have been using my fathers tomatoes - Ive made:
tomato, corn and green pepper
tomato and mango
tomato and apple
I also made:
plum and cranberry
peach and apple
peach, ginger and red pepper
pear and walnut (visually very unappealing - looks like jars of oysters yuck! But hope it tastes yum - I should have thrown something colourful in to brighten things up a bit!)
Goodness only knows what I will make next - once I have got rid of my "training wheels", I may graduate to perserving fruit next summer - going into winter here. There is something so satisfying about seeing the jars in the pantry, not to mention coming up with labels!
Thanks for the inspiration!
