snow Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 No snow here either but we've obviously had a monsoon as half the moss from the roof and guttering has been washed off and dumped in heaps blocking the drains and covering the side passage with a thick layer of black icky soil and inch deep water - I've been out wading and brushing it all into the flowerbeds so that the drains are clear but it's left a heck of a mess behind.

loobie Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 I dont actually like currants or sultanas We have a welsh cake shop and you can buy them practically off the bakestone. They do allsorts of different ones incluing chocolate chip which are gorgeous. Only problem is they're a bit pricey. http://www.fabulouswelshcakes.co.uk/ There is a stall in Cardiff Market too Amy, and they sell them hot off the bakestone for 30p each (and they have free 1/4's for tasters too ) They are the only ones I have tried that I like as much as homemade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griff Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 oooooooooo it's cold been out and got the dogs mince, got back to find they have put my hospital appointment back a month :angry: i could be left permannetly deaf in one ear and the consultant couldn't give a sh*t...rang my mum and she is going to give them hell just had some good news...well kind of, my nan was told she had terminal lung cancer with about 9months to live.... they wanted biopsies doing but they haven't been done, the oncologist said as she smoked he thought lung cancer and not secondary colon cancer... her surgeon said secondary colon cancer and today they have had a meeting and a secretary has told my aunty it is secondary colon cancer... my aunty asked how can they tell with no biopsies and apprently they can tell by the way the tumours are clustered so she is still terminal but with a bit longer to live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happylittlegreensquirrel Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 talking of all things cake related I need to buy some Kendal Mint cake which made me think of Missus Yantan , does she still post around these here parts does anyone know ?

Jacobean Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Evening on this wonderful Friday night. Yantan has trouble posting on here. I feel robbed. Admittedly we were staying in the borders and dipped in and out of Shropshire and Wales but I bought a pack of Welsh Cakes purposely in Knighton because as I said to Martyn we're in Wales so have to have some. Yes I know Knighton isn't in Wales but Tuffins was the nearest for us to get some grub. I've never had them before and sadly I still haven't had them. Darnit we'll just have to go for another holiday What a bizarre subject for Mastermind - The Welsh settlement in Patagonia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happylittlegreensquirrel Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Yantan has trouble posting on here. ooh thats a shame What a bizarre subject for Mastermind - The Welsh settlement in Patagonia did they have Welsh cakes ?

Happylittlegreensquirrel Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Blacks and Millets sell Kendal Mint cake. I don't like it anymore, too sweet, but used to love it as a child. I have ordered some from ebay , its for my sponsored sri lankan mountain climb last time I did it my legs when very wobbly about 3/4 of the way up and I am hoping the KMC will help give me the boost I need as the last section is torture sheer bloody torture Plus I think if Romneys Kendal Mint cake was good enough for Sir Edmund on Everest its good enough for Sam Squirrel on Adams Peak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
