Recession has definitely fallen upon The Lane. Witness a conversation amongst a group of yummy mummies in the park today. Discussion topic: children's party. Budget - only ?200. Tough trade-offs to be made. Would Cava be acceptable instead of champagne? Cup cakes or fairy cakes? To have a bouncy castle or not? Wait - Henrietta's mother might be able to do face painting instead. Life is getting harder in ED make no mistake. We should probably start a collection to ensure that the kids of JAGS and Alleyns get the parties they deserve. To contribute, please PM me and if I see them again I will pass the cash on.

The problem is not those that are already afloat, but for those of us that are all ready close to sinking - we drown!


But it's funny how even those that are not really suffering, seem to find such trivia to fret over.


We need more 'wake up calls' in our lives to find perspective?


Thx.

That's a butterfly cake, not a fairy cake.

Hmmm...


Is this one of your famous euphemisms DJ, I mean whatever next, your famous "lady cake" painting ?



Nette::o

PSML......oh my Annette......I'm trying very hard not to picture that scene, but not trying hard enough to be successful ;) (we once had a bakewell tart on the half time menu care of one Dita-on-tees)


Yes Frankito I do bake cupcakes - made some rum and raisin ones today - very scrummy with a splash of whipped cream I might add :D

    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face. 
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....
