A late tea at 3

[albaqwerty]

jam doughnuts are a no-no in case the jam gets on Nora's new carpets.
The rest of us can have at least one, and there a a few with cream in too.
I've planked the gin for Craft's personal use.

[rowanwitch]

just tea please...Redman's bought custard tarts for dessert and I want to do them justice

[EcclesCake]

Did I miss the cheese scones yesterday???

[albaqwerty]

ooh Rowan, you're letting the side down. I'm sure your home-made custard tarts would be tastier that shop-bought.
Nice to see you, another month closer to retirement ! xx

Cheese scones just out the oven Eccles xx Did you bring the chutney?

[EcclesCake]

Does apple and date suit you?

[albaqwerty]

Never tried apple and date, but sounds delicious, so yes please, a generous spoonful if you don't mind x

[EcclesCake]

I'm on my way, you can keep the rest of the jar if it's to your liking.

[Smowball]

Ive got some fresh salted butter for the cheese scones

[EvianBaby]

Got any tea cakes?

[albaqwerty]

I am not being ladylike at all, slevvering at the thought of the chutney. At least I'm level headed, it's from each corner.

'Ello Smow, tuck in x

[Smowball]

And very delicious they are too!

I'm on my way with a couple of limes :-)

[boxtops]

I've just had a Lemongrass and Ginger Lucozade (very nice) and a Crunchie - that should give me a sugar rush!

[albaqwerty]

Be careful of the limes, the can make you trip over a kerb or stairs.

Must keep me eyes peeled for lemongrass and ginger lucozade, the orange flavour was a step too far imo, but I'm liking the sound of that tho Boxy x

[Noraq]

I just have a black coffee thanks Albs. xx

(Chicken Casserole in oven as we speak.)

[boxtops]

It's v nice alba, it says Lucozade Revive on the label. Agree, the orange one was vile.

[albaqwerty]

I'll be with you at 6 Nora, if that's OK? Love Chick casserole when someone else cooks it :-)

Black coffee eh? Mr Nora is going to have a peaceful night !!

Cheers Boxy, I'll keep me eyes peeled and get the younger Albas to have a look too.

But ... tea at 3 is early ... not late.

[boxtops]

It depends what time you have your lunch, JJ....

[albaqwerty]

JJ a pint of gin (for a certain lady) a mug of horlicks (for another) coffer and a cuppa tea for the rest of us mere mortals :-)

Have you got shot of the gunky paperwork?

[joggerjayne]

Well lunch could be any time from 11 until 3.

But surely tea would be around 4 ?
