That's what Delia says too, and you can always rely on her.

I'd rather rely on someone who came from southern Italy, than good old Delia from Kent, when it comes to cooking Melanzane (aubergine)

It's good that she agrees with oldcow though

Well I'm very jealous!!  

I have got some healthy plants - in greenhouse and outside - with some beeeyoootiful flowers but not a sign of even the teeniest aubergine like bump!

As far as cooking small aubs, baby aubergine curry is very yummy they melt in your mouth!

Is it getting too late for them or does anyone know how late they can be - I grew from seed and planted earlyish.

Maybe they're not being pollinated (especially the ones indoors)? A bit of help with a small makeup brush might be needed...

[/. If I say like ear wax will you all be appalled?

No, not at all.  But how do you know what ear wax tastes like

Ooops. I thought every kid knew what ear wax tasted like! Much as it was a long time ago, I was a kid once. It's not the kind of taste you ever forget. Yeuch.
