Bakewell Slices ! The beginning of the end...

[Mick Mac]

My wife is out and I have just been unpacking the online shopping and have found in one bag - to my utter horror - a packet of Bakewell slices.

What should I do - should I confront my wife openly about this purchase, demanding an explanation, should I keep quiet and pretend it never happened, or should I throw them in the bin and hope she does not notice?

I see anything by Mr Kipling as something only very old people have in their cupboards - we can't be there yet.

[????]

eat them, and see if they are ever mentioned

[Sharon_H]

Thrown them in the bin.

At your peril!

[red devil]

Mick, start worrying when the Arctic Roll makes an appearance...

Mick take a photo of the evidence and keep your powder dry for another day when you have to justify buying a giant telly for the new football season ;-)

[Mick Mac]

Yes - I can see that one Matt

After all that money you've wasted on Bakewell Slices...I deserve something for me....I've bought a two grand tv.

Exceedingly poor Mick......a friend was kind enough to call my male appendage Mr. Kipling once, many moons ago though, and not because he was exceedingly good either....B)

You do know of the old Almond/ Arsenic relationship..........do you not?

It is said that the bitter almond has a "relationship" with the known deadly toxin which is "Arsenic".......neahh

Beware, be very aware........a plot may be afoot.

Oh don't get your cardigan in a twist.

[PeckhamRose]

Oooh, may I 'come out' and admit I quite like those, AND Battenburg cakes.

AND home made prawn cocktail.

I am such a seventies child.

It'll be Warninks Advocaat next.

[Moos]

Ooh, ooh, me too. I'm a trollop for anything almond-flavoured.

I love Mr. Kipling bakewell slices

[Jeremy]

You should demand that in the future she buys the far superior "country slices".

[Muley]

Sneaking unpleasant confectionary into the home without your knowledge would seem to be a betrayal of trust, but perhaps a frank and open discussion, possibly with a professional councellor acting as an intermediary, would help. Has she ever done this kind of thing before?

[woofmarkthedog]

Unless they are cherry bakewell.....Mmmm

[Ted Max]

Do you have any cricketer friends, MickMac?

[Brendan]

I would demand to know why they aren't Angel Slices.

These cakes lost their charm when they stopped having the advert voiceovers done by a paedophilic old man.

I think he went over to Werthers Original in the end.

Personally, I'm a whore for Dundee cake but never eat the almonds on top. I'll leave them on the bar in the Quiet room for you.

[Mick Mac]

Found out since, with great relief, that the Bakewell slices were for the kids lunches. So all is ok.

[SteveT]

Ask where your crate of Speckled Hen is, which you need to swill down after the gallon of Guinnes, kids seem to get everything while you remain but a shadow of the man you once were.

[AuraCaught]

Errr, what's wrong with Bakewell Slices?

[Asset]

We just bought some today.....
