I think I posted too soon

Or Welsh Lady (Louise?)

Oh Val. I quite like her but bless her she really does remind me of granny pottering around the kitchen, getting distracted and finally producing dinner around 2 hours late having of course completely refused any help because she is used to being queen of her kitchen.

The boiled sweet thing works and is dead easy if you keep a really sharp eye on it. It only takes seconds. Use Glacier mints for plain glass windows.

We work in the same hospital, I've only met her a couple of times but she's always been perfectly lovely to me and she takes real pride in her work. I think she is one of those genuinely satisfied in life people.

Argh, the suspense of the collapsing gingerehouses!!!

Which one Trills?

Oh! Louise! :(

The one that looks like Merlin, Trills?

Poor Louise. Nice knowing you

I think Louise has had it.

Louise!!!! Val!!!!! Noooooo.

Yep Welsh Lady is a gonna or may be Val or possibly both?

Oh poor Louise!

oh Louise

Bit cruel this, so early in the series.

But a lesson on less is more, I think!

And Val :(

notpenny no it doesn't - I tried it after seeing it on a previous series. it didn't look very good and was inedible

Oh dear

It really wasn't long to get it all stuck and dried so it would stand without supports, they've done well.

How did he do the bricks ?

I don't know his name, I had forgotten he existed!

Eddie Redmayne's is brilliant

The bridge with bricks is wonderful

The Cambridge thing looks good.
