I loike aubergines. I hate the price of them in the shops however. Has
anyone grown them in this country? I don't have a greenouse so they would
be
in containers in a sunny, sheltered spot.

Yes. My 5-year old grew one plant as an experiment last summer. Not bad.
It was in a really hot sunny spot but didn't grow very big. It felt a
little too hard to eat, but we chanced it anyway and roasted it along with
some peppers, red onions and cherry tomatoes we had also grown. Delicious!
We were very surprised. Well....they do say that the best things come in
small packages!!
Give it a go.
