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

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.

Marmalade can do an excellent Daily Mail Sadface. I truly hope that happens, GetOeuf.

Also, who hasn't read Riders?!

Groovee · 28/03/2013 09:51

Looking forward to hearing if LDM turns up for the sale.

drjohnsonscat · 28/03/2013 09:51

oooh cockadoodledoo, are you central London?

BTW am just rereading this thread to relish the full glory of it and noting that the OP was planning to make 40 cornflake cakes. 40!!! No wonder the PTA hate me - I buy make 6 at most. OP you are supreme among cake contributors and she can drizzle off.

StealthPolarBear · 28/03/2013 09:51

Bupcakes is still around isn't she? And she's love;ly :(

StealthPolarBear · 28/03/2013 09:52

oh hang on, is she the OP?

minouminou · 28/03/2013 09:52

As I was handing over a quid to DS this morning, for his end of term disco, I remembered that it is the day of the Apocalyptic Cake Sale........

Ah cannae wait, pet!

MarmaladeTwatkins · 28/03/2013 09:54

WTF? I don't wear nude coloured heels!

Anyway, I am most perplexed... I just took in my nests and there in the head's office was a lemon drizzle cake Confused Deffo hers because she always puts it into an M&S shortbread tin (to show off no doubt)

She must have had a change of heart!

GetOeuf · 28/03/2013 09:56

PUNCH THE CAKE

PUNCH IT

I WILL GIVE YOU TWENTY POUNDS IF YOU DO

minouminou · 28/03/2013 09:56

Ooooooohhhhhh!!!!!!
It's gonna be good!
Did it look like a good one, or was it as sunken as the previous ones?

GetOeuf · 28/03/2013 09:57

I am going to buy one of those rude cushions for dd's room.

That makes me a terrible mother probably but I know she will hoot with laughter.

minouminou · 28/03/2013 09:57

Yeah! Punch it. Sit on it and leave a bum print.

Lucyellensmum95 · 28/03/2013 09:57

Maybe she is bribing the head with LDC and your kids will be in permanent detention?? Some mothers can be spiteful

minouminou · 28/03/2013 09:58

£20 - who's up for a whip-round? We'll split the proceeds between Marmalade and the school.

TobyLerone · 28/03/2013 09:59

I will also give you £20 if you punch the cake.

Drywhiteplease · 28/03/2013 09:59

Marmalade this is what you should do......
Buy the lemon drizzle cake , make sure Maxidrizzle sees = moral high ground

minouminou · 28/03/2013 09:59

It's for charidee......

minouminou · 28/03/2013 09:59

Buy it - and then punch it.

Crinkle77 · 28/03/2013 10:00

What a bitch. If I remember rightly cornflake cakes were always a great seller. Who doesn't love a corny cake?

Lucyellensmum95 · 28/03/2013 10:02

Buy it - have a slice and then feign agony, writhing on the floor clutching your throat/stomach THEN punch the cake

TheDoctrineOfSnatch · 28/03/2013 10:02

Catbert, school pancake disco?? What fresh level of hell is that?

Go Marmalade. What's on yer pinny?

Poledra · 28/03/2013 10:02

Yeah, GetOrf, it makes you an atrocious cunt of a mother. But at least your DD's an adult (old enough to drive! Smile). I think SS might take a dim view of Fucksticks bunting in the kitchen when your DDs are all primary school age...

minouminou · 28/03/2013 10:03

Buy it.....and then leave it on the table for the rain to wash away....like that song.

GetOeuf · 28/03/2013 10:03

Or stab it.

Stab it with a pencil.

Flumpyflumps · 28/03/2013 10:03

This is funniest thing I've ever read!!

OP please buy it and punch it!
