Betty’s fruit cake
Years ago I was working in Burtons and on a quite day I was talking to a fellow employee, a lovely lady called Betty about baking, and I said “I never make cakes, I can’t,” and she said, “I’ll give you a recipe that you can make that’s foolproof,” and she did and it is, …

Little Road trip to El Puerto de Santa Maria
So we set off on our little road trip in a 24 year old convertible Renault 19, no air conditioning and a recently acquired reluctance to start. We took the A7 from our house near to Castillo on the Costa Del Sol, up to Algeciras, and the inevitable traffic jam, the roofs off and it’s …

On the way we popped into Hornsea which looked quite nice, but shut, it was bank holiday Monday. So we went to the outlet shopping centre there to stock …

April fool
So after I received a pinch and a punch, and retaliated with a pinch and a kick, I turfed the old man out of bed to turn the heating up. He got back in, and after a few minutes he said that there must be at least 4” of snow outside, “I thought it wasn’t …

Whitby
The rain continued all last night and Steve had trouble getting off the muddy site.

Steve, somewhat over optimistically …
