    Rhos....are you around....or anyone...I've been given some punnets of cherries...I'm going to cook them to go in a dessert ........what's the best way to ensure I get all the stones out please?

    Use Chopstick or plastic drinking straw, I have a glass coke bottle put cherry on top poke stone through . or if want it cooked and smooth after cooking, use whole then push through colender .I have one with round holes so flesh goes through but stones don't

    Was hoping for cheese/port. Might risk the S/land one, but Sir Dodgy would have shouted if anything interesting there.
    Cherries, cant you boil them and the stones will come to the top, like they do with plums?

    And large Xmas cakes only had about 20% off :eek:
