Lamingtons are only good when filled with whipped cream, I've never been a fan of the "diet" ones (as my Mum calls them!). I also prefer raspberry ones, which you don't often see in these parts. They've been around for ever (well, for my lifetime at least) over there, so it's amusing to see them popping up on posh cake stalls.


Friands... Having grown up in NZ, lived there for 26 years before moving here, I had never heard of them until August when my Mum seemed to be buying them at every opportunity. Didn't think they were particularly nice.

What Rosie said. Word for bloody word!

WHat about muffins??? For example - chocolate chip. Promise so much - all those chocolatey bits on top and shiny sticky gooey-looking surface. You think - maybe this one will be different, maybe this time it'll be a good'un. Underneath - shitty crumby crumbly stuff that gets EVERYWHERE - guess this pleases passing pigeons - and is usually dried out! Like most cupcakes - style over substance ... discuss...

I personally think that cupcakes and their obsessive production, are a manifestation of repressed sexual desires and frustrations.


Otta alludes to this in his last post (as I read it)


>decorate cupcakes with little shiny balls which are meant to be edible<


If that's not "Vagazzles" on a cupcake then i'm somewhat mistaken.



Actually, are Vagazzles edible ?

    • Hi, The seller has already been restricted from making posts on the forum (including in the For Sale board) straight after you initially reported this. They do however still have access to their private messages so that they can contact you. If its clear that they have no intention of resolving then they will be permanently banned.   I would recommend making contact with the company as you will require evidence that the item is stolen if you plan to report this to the police. If so there is useful information on the Citizen's Advice website: https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/consumer/somethings-gone-wrong-with-a-purchase/if-you-think-youve-bought-stolen-goods
    • That's like the cartoon of the person who goes to IKEA for tea lights, comes out laden with stuff and says "Damn, I forgot the tea lights"  😂 
    • Have you tried contacting the company the laptop belongs to? I expect they would be interested.....
    • Last week I bought a Galaxy Chromebook Go on this forum, the seller was not home when I went to pick it up, I texted him and he found an excuse apologized and said he could deliver,  I accepted and later that evening he delivered the item in the original box ... all seemed ok until my son (it was supposed to be a present for him) opened it and tried to log in his google account, to our surprise it stated that the laptop was property of a company and could not be used without authorization. We tried to contact the seller, and he initially provided some excuses, but after his initial responses, he stopped replying to our messages. I informed EDForum but no action has been taken as the seller is still present on the forum... I am very disappointed
