my mum makes a sponge cake with lemon curd on top and then puts desicated coconut on top - might work with grated fresh coconut?

Balance it on top of something and have a "one coconut only coconut shy" If you got a few new potatoes in your box you could use them to throw..

I'm not sure how but could you use the milk for a curry?

Smoothie sounds yummie - pina colada even better -

Would like to keep the shells intact for horsie sound playing with DS. Do I just hack the thing in half, drain milk and scrape out flesh?

Hi Punky

Stick a needle throught the three holey things under the husk to get the milk out. THEN hack it in half etc....

That's what we used to do as kids, anyway

TNG - you are the fountain of all knowledge :rotfl: You had a posh childhood. We never had coconuts. Well, of course, we had it tough. We used to 'ave to get up out of shoebox at twelve o'clock at night and lick road clean wit' tongue. We had two bits of cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at mill for sixpence every four years, and when we got home our Dad would slice us in two wit' bread knife.
