    Ah thanks guys ......yes I was having a throwing my toys out of the pram moment (have always said a good friend tells you what you need to hear rather than what you want to hear).

    As for the ice slice idea it was because he loves ice slices & I was going to get those number candles so would spruce it up.

    Yes he's not having a party as such but having people around & it was going to be a relative small one.

    Fortunately one of the girls in work has come up trumps & ive got a replacement coming, cheaper than the original & I know will be made perfectly - have tasted her cakes in the past so I know what it's like.

    Thanks once again

    The OP is now sorted with a cake. :T

    TBH, I did think it was a bit of a storm in a teacup but I didn't realise until your later post that you were having a small gathering so can understand why you wanted a cake.
    I thought there'd just be the 2 of you. :)
