    Don't worry Swan at this rate I'll have enough for everyone, I might even bake a cake of some sort. We don't need a picnic, I just thought it was the Old Style thing to do, I don't mind, either way. :D

    ahem .. hello (waves tentatively) :wave:

    Could I come? I'm from Fife, but work in Livingston/edinburgh and could come through for the evening. I haven't posted too much, but am what you might call an "aspirational old styler" - ie. my house is a mess and I cook only sporadically. I do have a slow cooker though ..

    I'd love to meet some people from MSE!

    PS - just thought, if anyone needs a lift back east, I could maybe help that way?

    Ok...am going to make brown bread ( didn't know it was famous???) into scones, put in box and hope that the authorities don't decide to take it from me at Prestwick..will butter some, just in case there are any of you who are oddities like 3 of my children and don't have spread of any kind on their bread!

    Need to check in soon.....could forget!

    clooties mum - hiya!

    I live beween Cupar and St. Andrews. Normally, I work from home, or at client sites all over Scotland, but my office is in Livingston so I can go there when I need to.

    I didn't know there was anyone in Fife - quite excited to hear I'm not the only one...whereabouts do you stay?

    Six, seven if divorcingjack comes, eight if Jinky comes, and there are still a few to reply to pms, but they've not been on for a while, think I'll stalk jexygirl too, as she was very keen but hasn't been on lately. Bsiness must be good. :)
