GHM, you can buy the Ikea insulated server on line or check if they have any stock herehttp://www.ikea.com/aa/en/catalog/products/00192674/
I have one as I don't have a thermos weber ( apple autocorrects - thermoserver)

I notice a few of you guys have been buying tupperware - is there a guide somewhere for working out what sizes to get? i.e 2kg of flour needs a container of X size?

Thanks

I had a little shop this morning with a voucher I was given for my birthday. A strainer for yoghurt , ricotta etc, an awesome garlic press, and some pegs that are not supposed to leave marks on your clothes. Hopefully good for trousers, jumpers etc. of course I spent more than the voucher, but isn't that the idea?
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Hi Obbie, do you mind me asking who you went through on eBay to buy your Tupperware? I'm looking a ordering quite a few modular mates and was hoping to save a bit of money but also wanted a reputable seller (we've been duped before!) Thanks  :)

Where did you find the pegs Cookie? - Will be interested to see if they don't leave marks.

KT2, I went through IVONTAN brilliant service, and price.
All arrived in about 7 days.    He did a deal for postage, also 2 free freezer mates.

Yvette, have not heard if he has Ultra pro yet. I did send a message.
