As it has not been frozen already can I freeze part of the packet - it is too much for the two of us but I wonder whether I should make up the whole lot and freeze whatever or can I freeze the pastry successfully -cheers

Just take what you need and freeze the rest. When thawing it however, thaw it slowly in the fridge as Filo pastry is very delicate.

Mine keeps well in the fridge for the length of its Best Before date as long as I completely seal the open end of the plastic.

gerry64 - here's something to make with four to six sheets:
Place filo sheets one on top of each other with a light spray of cooking oil in between (or brush with melted butter) Place fruit mix along the near edge and roll into a long narrow roll with ends turned in like a parcel.
Bake 15 mins at 220* C, covering it with a foil tent for the last 5 mins to prevent burning.
Dust with icing sugar and cut into pieces to serve when cold.This tastes like a fruit mince tart, without the added sugar and fat.
