That's funny. I'll email it to my SIL, she lives nearby. Maybe she'll join in the competition next year, doesn't seem too tough.

I love the fact that she was the only contestant before, 11 years ago, and came third.
She's improving

This made me laugh loads!

My mum used to enter the local shows in Cornwall, she won 20p for coming first in the Saffron Bun category and a sad 5p for her 3rd in the Cornish pasties.

I always remember the look on her face when they presented her with the envelope with 5p in it...............

SueBaroo · 05/07/2007 20:47

Oh, that's fantastic!

She really was second to none..

southeastastra · 05/07/2007 20:48

aw poor thing i loved the quote at the end:

"About 11 years ago I entered a show with some fruit scones. I was the only entrant but I came third."

SSSandy2 · 05/07/2007 20:50

hardly worth the envelope for ..........

............................... 5p!

Lisalumps · 05/07/2007 20:51

Maybe that was why it was just 5p perhaps the cost of the envelope was factored in.....

MascaraOHara · 05/07/2007 20:52

'marks for the cooling rack'

Do you think they're the kind of people that fold all their rubbish neatly?

from

Lisalumps · 05/07/2007 20:54

Probably, and iron their socks too.

SSSandy2 · 05/07/2007 20:54

and anyway the marks would be UNDERNEATH the cake surely. Do they turn these cakes upside down to check for marks then?

SSSandy2 · 05/07/2007 20:56

mind you if they only had one cake, they had plenty of time to turn it around, upside down and discuss its merits thoroughly

SueBaroo · 05/07/2007 20:57

It depends how she got it out of tin, doesn't it?

UCM · 05/07/2007 20:59

Oh my fucking God, that is not right. Where are the MNWI, we should write to their parish and tell them all about our organisation. Good grief!!!
