    Knickerbocker Glory rose. My mum used to make them with jelly, tinned fruit, ice-cream, cream and nuts on top.

    Just a quick pop in, been really busy today. District Nurse was here this morning to see DHand then had to take him for Chest Xray.

    Still no little piggies but they are on their way home from Edinburgh now so thats our duties over for now. Heading to Hartlepool to see Sister and Durham to see DD1 and family, probably back middle of the week.

    Hope you are all OK
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS

    Sylvia hope you have a good journey and enjoy the weekend. Hope your DH is feeling better soon.

    Rose knickerbocker Glories bring back memories. Don't hear about them much now except at the seaside. Sound once you had found some cash you had a good shopping trip.

    We might go off to coast to visit relatives tomorrow. Might be cooler there

    Hope everyone has a restful weekend.

    had a good shopping trip leanfun and spoiled kiddywinks again. Don't live by the sea although 40 mins would take us there. Just an old fashioned cafe/chippy that still exists here

    Hon go for it:j cake is good when you can bake unlike me. I can cook and make bread ask me to bake a cake. My answer is no chance.
