To pelt my cakes at this mum's head in the playground this afternoon? <fume>

[MarmaladeTwatkins]

The school are having a cake sale tomorrow and have BEGGED for donations of cakes. They have been Facebooking about how desperate they are all week as they want to make a dent in the £12,000 target needed for some new play equipment in the playground. One might think that flogging cakes at 30 pee each is not the way to make a dent but that's another thing...

I am pushed for time this week but I thought I could do some cornflake easter nests with some mini eggs on top as a quick alternative to baking and frosting two dozen fairy cakes. So I went out and bought the stuff (which I reckon cost more than they will get from the sales tbh) Then I replied to one of the FB begging messages saying "I will bring some cornflake easter nests tomorrow, will have about 40" Then one of the PTA wimmin replied "Ha ha! That's great but be prepared to take most of them home as they don't sell as well as real cakes."

Fuck. You. Bitch.

:(

I want some cunt bunting and a chocolate crispy cake. I must listen to Harper Valley PTA tomorrow as I walk though the playground

This is a brilliant thread, thank you!

thanks, I needed a laugh.

Best thread in ages

I want some naice cuntbunting!

"Fuck you lemon drizzle murderer. Fuck you right up the bum" is one of the best things I've ever read on the internet.

All I have to say, really...

I agree Runmbelina! I laughed harder at that comment than I have at anything in ages.

Oh excellent, I do love a good righteous indignation thread. Well done, marmalade.

Unashamedly marking place for this afternoon's update

Have just read this thread from beginning to end and it's brilliant!

Oh and drjohnsonscat wonder if I know you?! We had the same letter this week and it really pissed me off too. Fuck 'em, we're going away this year

Thanks greeneggs I'm off to look for them today :)

It's cake sale day!

::hyperventilates::

It's a beautiful day. Just right for a cake sale.

I am looking forward to sneaking in for updates during the day!!

And thanks Pollywollydoodle - I had wondered about that when there was a lot of talk of "middle class families really struggling", but I guess I hadn't thought as much of those who always struggle. (I usually give a large bag to the supermarket trolley collections so I was taken aback at the reaction to my efforts to go farther).

It's today!

::sighs with contentment::

I might make some chocolate nests to scoff while waiting for updates. It'll feel more festive that way...

i can't seriously believe there's a woman out there who has a cake hierarchy and believes one cake is better than another! Why do we get so invested in flipping cake? Don't get it. Mind you, my baking is terrible.

A fine day for a bake sale, a very fine day indeed..

OP......I'm on training day (should be doing something constructive but this thread is great!)......haven't read whole lot.....yet.......but as a regular cake stall organiser,contributor and now on teaching staff, I know that crispy cakes ESP with eggs get eaten whereas lovingly decorated by an adult ( for adult appreciation) are generally licked a bit then dis guarded by the kids.
She's rude.

It is THIS day!!! why oh why oh why did i say i would take DD and a group of friends to soft play after school today - it would be rude to be checking my phone the whole time, even if i could get a bloody signal

Please can we have this in classics, can we please??

Wasn't there a mnetter called Bupcakesandcunting?

So there was...

No idea what happened to her, but she was a bit of a Twat anyway :o

ooohhhhhh!

Yes, a marmalade flavoured twat.

I love the bunting with cunt and tits.

There is going to be a headline in the DM tomorrow 'mums have fight over easter cakes at school fete - children traumatised'

And there will be marmalade all battered and bruised with nude coloured heels on.

Has anyone read Riders by Jilly Cooper? There is a scene in it where they all kick off at a country fair and end up lobbing cakes at each other and then get arrested. This is what I predict happens today.

God I'm ridiculously excited. Hope it's not a big let down where the update is we all got on well & sold out of everyones cakes. Hoping more for a lemon drizzle up the bum kind of result.

::sings in a Van Morrison stylee::

Oh it's a wonderful day for a bake sale
With the blue sk-y and the sun.
It's a marvellous day to say 'fuck you
Lemon drizzle, fuck you right up your bum'
