"Georgies Chariot",I like it.

I washed and dried mine today, I just hope I dried it well enough so the doors don't stick.

A bit of a tradition in our family:xmas-smiley-024:

McVities Tunis cake is long since not made but if your lucky one of the major supermarket chains usually have a version .
Could only find a Tesco one this year but it isn't bad

Not so much marzipan on them these days though

[Georgies Dad]

I can remember whilst living with my Nanny and Grandad,they used to have one a Xmas,probably part of the xmas hamper which they used to pay the milkman weekly for.

I can only remember xmas's there,as I was too young to remember my Dear Mum.

I have 5 brothers and we have never had xmas under the same roof since Mum died in 1957,even now all those happy childhood times are missing and erased,maybe one xmas we will do it I know Mum would have loved to see us all together,but that was never to be,we were farmed out to Aunts,and Nanny,so we were never bought up as a family.

I would love to type more but I cannot,tears are in my eyes writing this,and I am 62 years old,I wish things could have been different

Well I'll send you all my icing, and you can send me your marzipan

Sounds like a plan to me

Having met you many times Steve I can say what a gentleman you are, so I can only say that your grandparents did a great job bringing you up and they and your Mum will be looking down and very proud of how their boy turned out
