It's taken him three attempts now, but Stephen's cracked it! I'm sorry that he's not able to leave a message himself, but he has to earn computer privelages now. He's going to try the salad tomorrow.

Came through a link to your other recipe but we're going to try this. We've got a couple of boys coming round tomorrow, and we're thinking this is going to be more there thing than the cous-cous. We're students, if you hadn't guessed. We'll come back and let you know the verdict.
