Ohh I've just had a horrible thought I've thanked the wrong person for my stars??? :eek: Is it Soapie I should be thanking??

Really sorry, newbie so still learning .

Don't worry, it is confusing. Just thank Toots for the stars and that will be fine. Normally, it's a lady called toottifrootti who does the stars but, as she has had to go in hospital, we have a user account tootifruities which we share so either of us can update the stars. At the moment, it's me logging in and doing them. But the real Toots will be back soon

I'm not saying it IS a scam.... but since hes asking you to prove you can afford it i just thought id point you in direction of these links first.. i hope to god im sooo wrong... i really do.... and i hope you have just struck on a good deal. I know you said your aware it could be a hoax etc.. so hope your not offended in me posting these.

Im just a cynical old bag lately... (at 23! :rotfl:)

That is scary :eek:

On the other hand I suppose if you were going abroad and wanted to let your flat without using an agent you would want to be sure you were picking the right people.

I suppose you could ask advice from the people on the 'house letting and renting ' board. (I don't think they bite)

Lots of kebaby skewer type things. That way you can make a chicken breast, or a sausaage, say, spread much further by alternating a chunk of chicken or saus. with bits of pepper and mushroom etc.

Good ideas, plus baked spuds are good on the bbq, just wrap them in foil and chuck them on. I also love corn on the cob done on the bbq:D

I had thought of pots but I was thinking about par boiling them then doing skewars with pot then a mini chilli then pot then chilli (you get the idea) what do you think??
If I was to do 'baked' pots roughly how long would they take?? My BBQ is quite small.....
