Hi Allan :-)
I've got the Sydney hostage situation on now.
It's really good that 5 people have managed to escape. How that will affect the situation for those still inside is worrying though! :-(

Jaggery-Caramelised Walnuts

Ingredients:

100g/3½oz jaggery (available in Asian stores and some supermarkets), chopped or pounded into smallish pieces
50g/2oz walnut halves, shells removed

Preparation method:

Place the jaggery into a small pan and heat gently, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth.
Add the walnut halves and stir to coat.
Spread the walnut halves onto a sheet of baking paper or an oiled plate, working quickly before the jaggery starts to harden - if it does, return to the heat for a few seconds until melted again.
Allow to cool completely, then break into pieces.
When cold, store in an airtight container until needed.
Serve as a snack or sprinkled over desserts and yogurts.

OK Jem :-)

We've got it on now! Very frightening!:-( :-( :-(

I'm going to log off now Allan, and watch it for a while before I go to bed.

I do hope the hostages will be ok.

Oh My Goodness, that's terrible! Those poor people! :-( :-( :-(

Going to see if it's on our news in a few minutes

OH went the other day at 0630am and it was empty. Also not much Christmas stuff. As it opened mid-November they probably did not want too much left over.
