    Just showed my five year old the pictures and he said (and I quote)
    "Wow, we got to make one of those"
    We will add our pictures too when we do ours, will have to be next weekend though.
    Thank you Mr BE:T

    Well, I'mcross.

    MBE, how could you do all this without me? Just 'cos I had to go to a party and eat a delicious 4 course meal, you had to choose then to do the cooking, didn't you? :cry::cry:

    Following in the footsteps of MBE I gave this a crack myself at the weekend. Didn't get any pics of the mix in place , but heres a quick before and after cooking shot.

    note the jug of juices/fat - I need to get one of those separator things to pour the juices into my gravy.

    Looks wonderful, MadCowMan. Wish I my DH would try it. In fact that can be his project over the Easter holidays - it'll be my birthday and we are having a couple of nights in a lodge at Gleneagles, He can prepare it beforehand, take it up, cook it there and he might even be persuaded to stick a few birthday candles in it!
