That sounds not only incredibly easy Budgie B, but extremely delicious. Have copied and will give it a try. All I will need then is Tims' Fabulous Bread. Thanks! :P busy_lizzie

Love your Snowglobe snowman Budgie B! I have somehow never been very hot on making bread, had been hoping that Tim would do the honours and give out his recipe, but if you have a good one and its not too longwinded for you to post. It would be gratefully received. Thanks! :D busy_lizzie

This one is better and should read "How to tell if you've been bad"but it is too small so i'm still searching for the right one.
I use a bread maker to the dough stage and then do the rest by hand as i like a well baked loaf. Usually very successful I just use the basic mix per instructions.
