    You guys are putting up these posts and pics so fast.... aren't you getting just a wee bit knackered? Or is my attempt to incorporate British slang make me seem like a bloody grockel? A damp squib? :)

    Ok, I'll stop. But your slang terms are so fun! :)

    Similar to the Eccles cake the Chorley cake . The main difference is the currents are dispersed into the cake/pastry mix . Another local bake to me

    Steptoe and son? That was the inspiration for an American comedy Sanford and son back in the early 70s.
