think the sugar to dough ratio would be a bit out on something that size too!

A tarte titan?

im sorry but i have to say that's superb!
an astronomy/patisserie pun....i didn't even think it was possible!!
pushing boundaries FInk!

Still waiting for that angel cake you said was out of this world! A Blackhole Forest Gateau would do.

although it is immodest to say if only my large hadron collider wasn't on the fritz i could probably knock up a stupendous blackhole forest Gateau!

But not in a milky way!

How did it go today?

A solar eclair?

it was comedic!! and inhumane....no sleep no food is absolutely no problem but NO TEA for 12 HOURS?????? surely that's illegal?
i was having anaesthesiology tests and had just got topless and all the sticky things had been applied when the fire alarms went off and we all had to go and stand outside for half an hour,,,am currently having emergency tea binge !

quality

Emergency Ward Tea!

Why no cha?

(sorry my brain isn't functioning enough to respond!!)
well had to have ECG and also this thing where they hook you up to a computer while they block your nose off and have a tube in your mouth to measure respiratory capacity and wires attached to measure heart rate under physical stress so no food or caffeine beforehand *oh the horror*....it must be a new thing i've never had it before

Sounds like something Torquemada devised. How long did it all take?

two and a half hours....nurse was useless at getting blood too so i look like a second hand dartboard!!! but am HOME and have TEA ....and as i wrote that the sun came out
hoorah!!! also i started to read Rebel Angels again while i was waiting so not all bad!
Parlabane is back

I still have that to look forward to. The middle of the week, Saturday aside, is always the busiest for me.

Do you have to go through all that once a week?

(Been sunny here all day)

ooooops sorry
no i normally have bloods done every two weeks this is all pre-op testing
bit jealous of your sunshine though

Ain't going to last, rain tomorrow, although it should be warm over the weekend and into next week. Have they set a date yet?

haven't got a set in stone date my surgeon has to liaise with another one at a different hospital (teams of the buggers!) couple of weeks as far as i know am waiting on a ct scan date....but enough about me....how about you? what you covering today? Anything exciting?

ha i've infected the Bake off thread and people are now doing made up collective nouns

The usual, H bloody C, and a 2,000-word column.

A collective noun for bakers! A germ?

a rise of bakers?

oh and boooooooooo for the column and H and C how's it going? i'm guessing superbly if you are chatting to me

Like a bus going up a steep hill.

Do they have roll calls in a bakery?

oh no i'd courier my brain to help but i think it's all but useless...

yes they do, they also have cake walks

(should i let you get on?)

And bun fights!

(I'd rather get off!)

and humble pies !

In Ireland they have the Yeaster Rising!
