Morning all, well the cafe thread is just about full so here's the new thread.

Just a reminder Florence has made pastries over night, the garden is open with the sensory garden, the cat area (with catnip bush) is available and feel free to cool your feet int the water feature.

Kitten bees are magical creatures, their tails sprout tiny furry umbrellas when it rains.

I love kitten bees ❤️

Is there still some hot chocolate going? Have a few days off work so meeting a friend for lunch later. I'm still living with family but they've gone away for a few days and I'm by myself completely for probably the longest period of time in my adult life. I don't know what to do with myself 😂

mogloveseggs · 27/07/2020 14:36

Ooh nice @NoGravyForYou where you off to for lunch?
Run around the house naked I would Wink

AlCalavicci · 27/07/2020 14:45

@NoGravyForYou here you go a hot chocolate with marshmallows and a cinnamon stick to stir it.

@mogloveseggs gorgeous cat! We met at a local bar that's serving food. Had the most amazing Toblerone cake that I think would go down a treat here. Then we went for a walk by the river. It was lovely day overall!

Oh thank you @AlCalavicci! It was a very fancy hot chocolate!

PinkDaydreams · 27/07/2020 20:34

@NoGravyForYou toblerone CAKE??!!!! That sounds delicious! I tried white toblerone for the first time a few weeks ago and it was soooooo good!!

Oh my goodness I love the idea of an umbrella for a tail!

NoGravyForYou · 27/07/2020 20:41

There was some sort of sponge type base ( thought it was gluten free so not entirely sure what it was made of), some sort of mousse layer and then chocolate/Toblerone layer 😍

White Toblerone is amazing, my favourite of the two!

PinkDaydreams · 27/07/2020 20:45

That sounds so good! I really like toblerone anyway and white chocolate so when I saw white toblerone it was like Christmas come early!!😂

PinkDaydreams · 28/07/2020 07:50

Morning all!
I say we have cake for breakfast!! 😋

sashh · 28/07/2020 08:43

Morning sashh, hope you are feeling better. Croissants are lovely thank you.

BooseysMom · 31/07/2020 05:57

Morning sashh is the cafe open this morning? I need to talk. Feeling upset today. Loads of stuff getting me down. The Madeleine McCann case for one. I was on holiday in the Algarve 20 years ago and that vile paedophile might well have been there at the time. We saw a strange man in a cafe staring at young girl with her family. The memory has really disturbed me what with the news atm. Sad

mogloveseggs · 31/07/2020 07:30

Morning I'll pop kettle on shall I?
@BooseysMom Flowers It's just awful.
No visiting others at their homes here again Sad not sure if Ds can go to my mums whilst I work now. It's never ending.
