              Best of luck Al, hope that you are successful. I love cooking but I am not anything remotely close to masterchef standards. When my OH and I were first married she thought that I didn't like her cooking because I kept taking over when she was cooking or baking. She's a fantastic cook, it was just that I enjoyed it as well, sorry to digress and once again all the best.

                  its about a fortnights wait to see if i've been selected. they must get thousands of applicants, so fingers crossed.

                          Brilliant! :dbgrtmb: The best of luck.:) We'll be cheering you on. :yahoo:

                          I keep being told that I should have a go on it, but I don't have the discipline for that standard of cooking. I'm always looking for short cuts - not something you can do on MC.
