Followed Alan H's 'Waitrose' recipe and can thoroughly recommend.  Best to stick to small quantity (1KG apricots) tried making twice the amount first time, ( being greedy) and ended up overcooking it a bit as was obsessed with getting the setting point just so (make alot of excellent runny jam), and stuck to ordinary sugar as recipe said.  2nd attempt just perfect......smiley

Thanks Alan for that, like the recipe as no water or lemon juice, just sugar and apricots....Also like the idea of prepering then having a long rest before the cooking as the thought of jam making in this heat doesn't appeal.  Never turned jars upside down before either but it all makes perfect sense.

Hi Sprostoni, Mrs D here, (think you were kind enough to give me a euro for change in P d Falerone he other week ?), Anyway, like you havn't found a really good sausage here....best so far is in Lidl's Tolentino, Salsicce originali di norimberga bollite, a bit like one of the herby lincolnshire? ones but only size of chipolata-14 in a packet, their Tuscan sausages are not as salty as most too but have thick skins (wont go into what they are made of...)laugh.    Friend in Sarnano always buys hers from mobile van in main Piazza and says they are v good.... Will maybe try one or two and get back to you on that one...

Thanks Charlotte, So as I understand it from all the above, if my husband who has 5 children from previous marriage wants to make sure that our ½ûÂþÌìÌà house is left entirely to me all he has to do is have an ½ûÂþÌìÌà Will drawn up stating that he wishes the house to be dealt with on his demise by English (national) law so that his children will not be entitled to a share of it. (even though there would be a very small risk of his children challenging it.) Really appreciate your help and advice... Mrs D
