[radnrach]

You can make your own really easily

I have tried and sadly failed.

Ayres in Nunhead used to sell it

Try Eric's on Northcross/Upland Road.. or try making your own again?

A starter-free method is to make normal dough, let it rise and then put some aside. Make the remainder into normal bread. Then takethe set-aside dough, add more flour and water but no more yeast, let it rise,  set a bit aside and make bread with the remainder. Repeat. Your starter will slowly sour from wild yeasts in your kitchen. I did it this way.
