£2.10 a tin ??? That is a bit steep for something that cost around 65 pence in SA!!!

I know there is some substitute over here but I can't remember what it is called. Thanks anyway.

I think I'll just have to cook it for 3 hours...:haha:

Get a big enough pot and boil three or 4 tins at the same time... and HIDE the ones you are not using.

Sorry, didn't see your post until now...

Boil it for two and a half hours to 3 hours. Make sure it is covered with water all the time....
