You click the little image tab, then paste the address in - with nothing else around it so just this - http://s963.photobucket.com/albums/ae117/loshypops/?action=view&current=Photo0162.jpg, then click ok. Voila.

Looks fantastic! Did it go down well I take it? Brill!

You get the address with no tabs around it - by copying the one beside the little box saying "direct link"

Soda bread flour makes great pizza bases, there's no hasstle with yeast or waiting on the dough to rise. Simply add milk or buttermilk to the self-raising soda bread flour and mix in a bowl until it binds together, then kneed it a little until its able to be rolled out.

I often wondered what Soda bread flour was for (apart from the obvious - but you can make soda with normal flour, can't you? )

What quantity flour to milk/buttermilk? Must grab a bag and give it a try !

Quick qu. Is there any 'cheats' quick way of doing this.

Last time i tried i ending up sitting down to eat a lovely homemade pizza and enjoying it thoroughly, apart from the fact it ws 10pm!

Any way to make the base in less than 2-3 hours?!

I make the dough, then leave it to rise for about an hour while I prepare the toppings and heat the oven. I don;t give the base a second rising, just bung it into a hot oven - pizza in 75 mins
