    Really worried it's gonna be a 1 minute wonder :rolleyes: been looking on freecycle for one for ages but keep missing out. I thought it might save money on the packed lunches as DD2 will be starting full time school next week and the caterers at my school has changed so no more free lunches :( so with 3 packed lunches to make everyday we can have some nice fresh fancy bread :drool:

    MrsDee, good luck for September, I think we are all going to do really well :D

    Are they easy to use, I have absolutely no idea what to put in it or how to make it work :confused:

    Mustn't run before I can walk and think I should start with a simple loaf before I commence with the fancy bread :D I'm hoping I get into it so that I can make some delicious stuff like on the OS board, bread with seeds on and stuff :drool:
