Oooh holly...that sounds interesting. How do you do it and what do you use it for?

It's like the stuff they put in the Gingerbread Latte at Starbucks. I've just made some and am drinking it now. It is delicious. I got the recipe from the Christmas board last night. http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=2155843

Tooch - delivery charges don't seem bad, I bought 2 off Ebay from proper companies for my sisters girls and each was 15 delivery. Can get them refurbished from a company on there for around £100 if your lucky, got one for £80 and one gor £95

Valli... I went to Tesco today but couldnt get the cranberries anywhere....any idea where they should be ????

I got mine from Morrisons, they're Whitworths and were near the baking/dried fruit stuff there if that helps. If you're stuck I could pick you a bag up and drop it round maybe Monday evening if that helps? (I am AT WORK Monday we have INSET and we ARE in)
