Pasta machine (South Woodchester GL5)
Received
Hello, does anyone out there have a pasta machine that they no longer use at the back of a cupboard? I really want to have a go at making my own pasta but don't want to invest at this stage when I don't know whether I can or will enjoy doing it. I live in Woodchester so anywhere sort of 5 miles radius would be ideal.
