Thanks Mick. What it is the pub near where i live is having a bonfire and fireworks display and has said that on bonfire night we can have a stall selling jacket spuds to raise money for the school and i've got donations of 2 ovenfuls of jackets, 2 pans of black peas and chilli to go on the jacket spuds. And i thought we could do some parkin, treacle toffee and fudge to go with it all. The more money for the school the better! Now i have to find some volunteers!
