Yes its all my fault and im not ashamed every one in the world should be eating them to stop them from being a limited edition, do you realise they will stop making them soon, we all need to start a petition to stop this from happening, or squirrel a few 100packs away to keep us going.

So if you agree sign here:          Pads

I think I may have been being ironic...

900g (2lb) Sugar

225g (8oz) Unsalted Butter

1 large tin Evaporated Milk

Water (quarter of the volume of Evaporated Milk)

Vanilla Essence

Place the sugar, butter, milk, water and vanilla essence into a saucepan.

Heat gently until the sugar is fully dissolved.

Rapidly boil the mixture to a temperature of 114 - 118°C (238 - 245°F) the soft ball stage.

Remove from the heat and allow to cool for 2 - 3 minutes, then beat rapidly with a wooden spoon

until the mixture thickens and becomes rough in texture.

Pour the mixture into a 20cm (8 inch) baking tin, lined with silicon paper.

Allow to cool a little before marking into squares with a knife.

Leave in a cool place to set, cut into squares and store in an airtight container.

Do you want me to answer that?[Www]

Vanilla fudge

1lb Caster sugar
1/2 pint Evaporated milk
4 Tbs Milk
4 oz Butter
1 Vanilla pod split

Pinch of salt
Nuts (optional)

In a saucepan combine sugar, evaporated milk, milk, and salt.

Cook and stir over a medium heat until boiling, then lower the heat and stir for 30 minutes

Immediately remove saucepan from heat and add the butter and vanilla pod but do not stir.

Cool mixture, without stirring,  for approx 45 mins

Remove the vanilla pod and beat vigorously with a wooden spoon till fudge becomes very thick
and just starts to lose its gloss (about 10 minutes total).

Spread fudge into a foil lined & buttered baking tray, that's at least 8 X 2inch and score into 1-inch squares while warm.

Top each square with the optional nuts, if desired.
When firm, use the foil to lift the fudge out of the pan and cut into squares.

Store airtight in the refrigerator.

Better?[;-)]

Well, there's no point in stinting yourself, is there?

I was asking a class today about what they remembered from last lesson (Tudor England - the Welsh again!) and one of them kept on answering that they had been the first to import sugar. When I asked him to try to think of something else he looked all wistful and said "but I like sugar." I thought perhaps you were related?

Have also PM'd you.

On a serious note about insonia, in sainsburys and waitrose you can get sleepy time milk, my sister swears by it, they milk the cows at night and the cows produce milk with something in it that makes you sleepy. I do not know all the techchnical makeup, but she says its brilliant, you might be able to get it in France but I have my doubts.

We try to buy milk here in France that has been taken from the moo

cows at 07h00, it produces something that gets you up early, that way

we get up at the right time and won't be late for breakfasts......
