So what happened to the avocados? Did they ripen? How long did it take them?

All ripened now. 1 took about 2 days, the other 3 took about 5.
I've been polishing up the art of the clean split, removal of the pit and a clean single scoop with a dessert spoon  cloud9:

Warm ciabatta with bacon, avocado ... yum, and today with chicken, avocado and bit of mayo ... very tasty!

Thanks for all the tips  happy088

Strangely, the ones I bought were technically past their sell by date but in fact just unripe. I think it was about a pound for the four.

Place them in a brown bag with a tomato. It may take a few days.

Keep the bag on show; that way you won't forget to check them and it will provide an interesting conversation point should friends drop in.  whistle:
