    Thanks SH. Plumbing issues, etc are just what emergency funds are meant for aren't they.  I just hate taking money out of pots once I've put it in there.

    It's a favourite of mine MP.  Brilliant for using up courgettes that have languished a little too long in the veg patch plus, makes loads so there's always some leftover for the freezer.  It's low calorie and delicious too.
