There is a Village in Kent called Plaxtol - it sits somewhere between 'the arse-end of Kent' and 'Kent the garden of England' (or between Sevenoaks & Maidstone if you like).
Every year they have a marmalade making competition, or at least they have since the former owners of Plaxtol Village Stores (Sandy Oram and Sub-postmistress Gerry Weston) started the event in 2001.
This year, it fell to new owners of the village store - Alpesh & Keyna Patel to judge the 17 entries.
The clearly very bright and numeric Mr Alpesh Patel, apparently said to someone from the Kent & Sussex Courier "We had 17 entries, so that was 17 marmalade's I had to taste".
Well done Alpesh - and well done to this years winner Donald Forbes too.
He is the first man to take the Plaxtol marmalade crown, and now has the burden of deciding which local charity gets the £17 entry fees. People of Plaxtol we salute you.

Do you want to see a man with a really big nose perform psychic marmalade jar readings?
