    I don't get to post much but read daily, but I know someone on here will be able to help with this.

    It's my LO's first birthday on Thursday and I want to make a cake (only second one ever, first was on daughters first birthday!).

    How much ready to roll icing do you think I'll need to make this ? http://veganantics.co.uk/shop/full-sized-vegan-cakes-collection/dinosaur-cake/

    Just the green - it comes in 250g packs (tesco) and I'm sure one of each colour would be OK for the blue / yellow / white - but will 3 do it for the green ? or should I buy white and food colour and dye it myself (the colours look a bit insipid on tesco website.

    and do you think a victoria sandwich would be OK underneath (my maderia attempt 3 years ago wasn't great !)

    thanks :beer::D

    I know, she makes great cakes - I have put in an order for delivery tomorrow and hope to make it on Wednesday, so hopefully she'll be around before the end of the day so I can amend if I've got it all wrong.

    How are you All?

    I've had a lovely low calorie lunch :D & a good catch up with friends.

    TS - is it you who buys the £2 for 9 rolls of loo paper from Superdrug? Purchased some today as it looks good & 3 ply too :)

    Bought some damaged items at silly prices too - so posh shampoo & Pampers nappies for friend.

    These are 10p in SD (B00TS - £4.99 :eek: )

    Yes it's me Snap. :)

    I think it's pretty good stuff for the price. :cool: I'm running low again and couldn't find anything to match it in Ts or As today so will pop into SD tomorrow.

    Evening all :wave:

    EmmaP sends her regards! She's annoyed that I won at mini golf, so it looks like a rematch is on the cards :)

    We also saw one of those wingless Moorhen things, right in the open and everything!
