    It was always tradition to keep the top tier of your wedding cake for the first born christening cake, which in theory should be at least 9 months :D
    Or not as the case maybe :D

    I remember my first Christmas cake I agreed to make it with my mum just before she died, sadly we only got to mix the fruit in brandy, but it was lovely, we even brought stout to mix in aswell, I never made it, now I buy 1 when they get reduced.

    I used to love baking with my mum, but this was one I couldn't do.

    But every year it puts a smile on my face, she would have laughed.

    Ah, that's a touching story about your mum. :A

    I'm logging off now as Internet connection playing silly boogers. Forcing me into an early night. G'night all xx

    One of my ohs drivers had a massive heart attack, he drove into the station safely, got a green signal but didn't move his train. They found him in his cab, paramedics worked on him but could not revive him. He was getting an extra sunday in before they were off on holiday for a fortnight today.
    My oh a bit shaken up as you can imagine, only 4 years older than him and they'd been discussing pensions etc and taking early retirement a couple of weeks ago ...

    Day for bad news - one of the mums in my daughters class at primary school died of cancer at the weekend - leaving two girls aged 8 and 4. How terrible

    I the find out tonight that a close friend of mine who has fought breast cancer not once but twice has been recalled after her latest mammogram. Trying to be positive but surely this is gotta be bad news isn't it- Celebrate/Karlie? Any views.
    She has three sons.

    Just hugged my daughter and son and told them I love them.

    Brought a tear to my eye....miss my mum so much( and she was elderly when she passed away) and that is why it pains me to hear of those little girls who lost their mum to cancer. Memories like yours are precious.

    There is absolutely no way that I can see through a packet of Maltesars to see a bar code.

    You lot must have x ray eyes or would a torch help:p
