joshua: It is a gas hob. Thanks for the wok ring idea - Not sure what my partner would make of it, though! As for the larger size pot, I'll consider it but I made a template to see how large a 30cm (20 Ltr) pot really looks on the hob and it *really* is a stretch. It's not so much the price but whet...

Thanks for the update.

Clearly a k...
