Limit number of posts on landing page template

Try it with:

query_posts('cat=11&posts_per_page=2');

Thanks for speedy reply Keesiemeijer.

I thought something like that would work but its still showing all the posts from category 11 with no pagination at all. I’m starting to wonder if I have done something daft elsewhere on the template? Cheers for your help.

So this is a static front page?
If so, try it with this:

Legend that worked a charm!
