Thank you for the vid it made it simpler,I will try it as I recall doing a plait loaf and that worked,I'll just practice on Jude and mum.

Or ask them to do the plaits
The video does it just like I tried to describe. But it just doesn't matter as long as the onions are to hand.
By the way, HDRA/GO have researched the best way of storing onions and came up with the interesting finding that b o t h cool and dry and damp and warm are good ways for storing. But not cool and damp or dry and warm. So a warm, steamy kitchen is as good as a cold, dry garage.
