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.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Good luck Twatters, punch that cake!

TwoPoundCharityShopShoes · 28/03/2013 14:53

SHE DIDNT WIPE!

Oh sweet Jeebus that was a speedy shite! Shock

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 28/03/2013 14:55

Oh my good god!!! I cannot believe someone actually DID that! I am speeeechless!

KoalaFace · 28/03/2013 14:56

Good luck Marm (you are now Marm like Barm because you are the queen of the cake sale)!

Refusing to watch that youtube clip as my first trimester gag reflex won't be able to handle any shit. Speedy or otherwise.

Now that would have been funny, and perhaps a newspaper to pass the 2 seconds it took her to release... She must have been touching cloth surely!

Oh Toby, Boke!!!

AllOverIt · 28/03/2013 15:00

I LOVE this thread.

TobyLerone · 28/03/2013 15:01

Did you know that the French for 'touching cloth' is "J'ai un taupe au guichet" meaning "there's a mole at the checkout"?

It all comes full circle...

TobyLerone · 28/03/2013 15:01

It's the ciiiiiircle of shite.

I had wine at lunchtime.

TwoPoundCakePuncher · 28/03/2013 15:01

^^ check me out up there^^

TwoPoundCakePuncher · 28/03/2013 15:02

There's a mole at the checkout! Grin

cocolepew · 28/03/2013 15:02

I have never punched a cake, to my knowledge but I do love to poke holes in pakaged fruit. The sort that are on a polystyrene tray with plastic over them. I like to see how many I can pop before the assistant spots me.
Unfortunately you don't seem to get that type of packaging so much now Sad.

I have never shook a trifle either. I prefer to go around turning them upside down. idiot

EffieTheDuck · 28/03/2013 15:02

Just back from Lidl and gave a brioche circle a bit of a slap.
Solidarity and all that.

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 28/03/2013 15:02

I can't watch that clip, I'll puke. I've already made the mistake of reading another thread about someone getting into a bed full of dog vomit.

Toby, that can't be true about the French for touching cloth, can it? Grin Grin Grin

anklebitersmum · 28/03/2013 15:03

OOOOOhhhh, looking swish Marm?

ArbitraryUsername · 28/03/2013 15:03

There's a whole foods in Glasgow too. My mum loves it.

Seems that they've decided to go on fairly random expansion outside of London. Glasgow is not the obvious next location, distributions-wise.

TwoPoundCakePuncher · 28/03/2013 15:04

Noooo its me totally random namechanging regular TwoPoundCharityShopShoes!

CheerfulYank · 28/03/2013 15:05

Properly pmsl at "mole at the checkout." Here is a turtle head poking.

Ewwww, did the supermarket not have a bathroom? Wtaf?

GetOeuf · 28/03/2013 15:05

I just roared at the clips of those doofuses throwing milk.

Halfway through there is a clip of a bloke in Asda throwing gallons around, I had to look really closely as he is the absolute image of my brother. I thjought I discovered a deep dark secret then.

That dirty cow doing a shite. That's probably the MN poo troll right there.

TobyLerone · 28/03/2013 15:06

I learned it from Twitter, LadyC, so it must be true.

anklebitersmum · 28/03/2013 15:06

ooohh...sorry TwoPounds..clearly my brain was engaged trying to memorise the french for turtle-heading Blush

GetOeuf · 28/03/2013 15:07

Doesn't make sense - they are all in London apart from two - Cheltenham and Glasgow Hmm

GetOeuf · 28/03/2013 15:10

Do you have Whole Foods market near you cheeful - seems that they are a lot more widespread in america (well, it's an american store) and are they as fiendishly expensive as they are in the UK?
