H and M visit Queen

And some marzipan to send to Lucca.

Once again those who don't like the way the comments are going change the direction to Simnel cake. Could you please go over to Chat instead of high jacking this subject.

Will there be an election ? For thread/head prefect of GN ?

It was expected Aspen

Lucca

To be honest though there had been so many deleted comments and everything had been said so it wasn’t big deal to go off at a lighthearted tangent.

Anniebach. It was expected Aspen

Let the children play……

Oh dear

cn you remember marzipan fruits? my Mum used to make them, yet you never see them anymore

for what it is worth, I don't let people dictate to me in real life so I am not about to be told what to do on threads here.

I have no idea how much can be said about someone visiting their grandmother. All my children are visiting theirs today. I wouldn't expect anyone to have an opinion and yes my Mother does think she is the Queen

I certainly do remember them, In fact I have a box here. Not homemade but Fortnum and Mason.

Marks and Spencers also do them at Christmas

How clever of your Mum to make them! I have not had the luxury of home made marzipan for many years. My Grandma used to make a Christmas Log. Yum.

Fabulous simnel cake, maddyone!

whoah they look magnificent

I disagree JaneJudge no one is dictating , just stating that the baking of a cake has nothing to do with the O/P . Why not a thread on baking cakes ?

Is it acceptable for me to post I have baked a Bara Brith on a politics thread ? No it isn’t.

Of course it is annie you can post anything you like as long as it doesnt break guidelines.

It’s a snub for whoever starts a thread

It went absolutely crazy so people talked about the deletions and then talked about something else. When you have that number of deletions its perfectly reasonable to well laugh.

Oh Annie I love Barra Brith

I love Victoria sponge, (although I'm a republican.)

It WAS an H & M thread so it has been derailed and that was the objective. People don’t like being dictated to but happy to dictate to others - by stealth.

I wouldn't mind if you posted a photo of a Bara Brith

What else would you like to say about M&H Aspen?

Please carry on. Don't let yourself be ambushed by cake.

There is a picture on H&M kissing and looking very happy together at the Invictus Games so perhaps they made the right decision.

I'm happy they've been to see Harry's gran, as I would be for anyone in similar situation.

The problem was the huge number of deleted posts on this thread. I’ll probably get deleted for saying it, but that was the problem. So the thread went lighthearted.
Happy Easter everyone.

I love Bara Bruth as well by the way (and occasionally make it though I’m not Welsh. My grandmother was though.)

Thank you zoe.
