Anyone for Marmalade?

January is the season for Seville oranges and naturally it’s marmalade time. The end of February is the time for the annual Dalemain House Marmalade Awards, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. It’s a fun weekend, with lots of stalls and entertainments alongside the marmalade displays, and the awards have raised £150,000 for various charities since its inception. Unfortunately we couldn’t attend this year but a jar of Janet’s marmalade was duly dispatched by Royal Mail early in February.
