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

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
