I had to smile at some of the folk from my crafty group who came to buy cakes
Any cake as long as I made it
so picture folks in wheelchairs holding a cake and trying to pull it from someone else in a wheelchair
It made me smile and also made me feel a bit special cos my stuff does not look pretty but the flavour is always oomphed up as I insist on butter not marge for baking with*
And I will never skimp on fillings or toppings
The whole orange cake which was gluten free was snapped up by the slice and people were very kind about it
*I leave butter out when making fatless sponges obviously!

Fanta:
DDD is in situ and presently chewing on a pig’s ear with great satisfaction; as Son says, she hasn’t seen anything Pig for three and a half years!
And that took her about six minutes…
Maybe you should bring her to Westminster? I believe they have a rather large pig’s ear that needs dealing with.

Yer bee izzin despair.
After other news, yer bee izzin despair.
So, should we have slammers (I don’t know what these are, but I’m willing to try) and toast the Health of the Hound?

I am sorry to hear that, wee Bee.
A Slammer might well help. Or you could ask an obliging Dunnock to rustle you up a Soixante-quinze

Gin, champagne, lemon juice and sugar, apparently. That does indeed sound interesting.
