Banoffee Cakey

A bunch of friends convened last night to help the-happy-couple-to-be (the wedding is next week) move some furniture. She is moving in with him, and apparently he has no storgae…typical man! In return for offering up the servies of husbands and boyfriends as furniture movers, we were amply rewarded with supper and wonderful G&Ts. I [...]

1. What is your all time favourite book, from childhood, as an adult? Jane Eyre, closely followed by Little Women, although I did read Heidi recently and [...]

Where’s the fire?

“Your motor’s gone love,” said Steve-the-plumber, not to be confused with Steve-the-fish who, funnily enough, sells fish, or indeed Steve-the-DH.
