We have a winner

Today brings us exciting news from the Chilli Board of the ESit website.

To advertise their thankQ software, they gave away packs of chilli seeds at various conferences and asked people to send in pictures of the chilli plants grown from them.

This was one challenge our green fingered New Business Manager, Molly Loyd, couldn't resist: the seeds got sowing and the plant got growing.

And my, how it grew, until today we hear she's the winner, with a prize of the 'HOT Book of Chillies' by David Floyd! This will go down very well with Tom and I, being big fans of stupidly hot sauces.

Now before, she has to make herself "available for publicity purposes" and the inevitable interview in Heat, I managed to catch up with Molly to grab a few words:

So, Mol, how does it feel?

I'm ecstatic, really fired up: I've never won anything before in my life.

What do you put your success down to, and what's next for you?

Well, there was some hot competition, but I relied on my family's rich horticultural history to give me the strength to suc-seed [Ed, sort it out].

I now hope to use my chillies to get a wild card entry into the next International Chili Society cookoff and be a World Chili Champion.

So, well done Molly, we hope you make it and do us proud!
