No but if you find one I'd be interested in seeing it.

Yep. Drive to Sainsbury's. Head for 'Foreign Foods' aisle. Buy jar of
Patak's lime pickle.

Simple!

Patak's _Hot_ Lime Pickle, yes!

Yes, memory does play a part. The only Patak's pickle I'm not really
fond of is their aubergine variety. Which is a shame, because
aubergines - in all of their myriad manifestations - are my favourite
vegetable. Their chilli pickle is not too bad either.

I would agree with that, the mango pickle is very good but the lime pickle 
is the best.

Thanks for that I might have a go at it, I tried some homemade lime pickle 
once and it was awesome.

Her Indoors used to get through a jar a week. I swear the stuff is
addictive.

It goes lovely with any curry but also with a salad, it is indeed addictive.

I have a jar of the chilli pickle, but it's not hot enough, so I mixed
in some fabulous dried chillis I have- lovely.
