He gets about! 😊

Oh, and welcome to Mumsnet EJ13ZZ

Harry is the missing H from Pone. The OP must have thought the use of it was 'Spare' just like himself.

Tanks.

😂
Harry seems to have a lot of free time!

Arry - please.

This is genuinely the first thread about PH I have ever enjoyed.

Arrold.
I think he should totally merchandise pones.
What could go wrong?

I'm hearing this a la Dick van Dyke in Mary Poppins.

That's outrageous, what a horrible little twat he was and still is.

With scones, I do one half jam first then cream, and the other cream first then jam. It’s what King Solomon would have wanted.

It’s what King Solomon would have wanted.

Excellent! 👏

Wise. Very wise.

I tried that and both of them tasted the same so it must all be about aesthetics. Cream first.

I find that I can get more cream on if I put the jam on first and the cream (clotted, of course) is my favourite bit.

Edited: Thinking about it, it probably does look prettier to have a blob of jam on top of the cream. I might take to adding a small garnish of jam to my laden scone...🤔

King Solomon loved his scones. It tells you as much in the Bible.

Mind you, I think Rehoboam and Jeroboam got into an argy bargy after their dad died and split Israel between them.
Bible scholars on here may be able to correct me. I wonder if Charles has recently consulted the Good Book? (No, I do not mean "Spare", though that's a bible for some folks...)

You need a nice fresh strawberry garnish on top!

But the cream would be too heavy for the jam and would mix in and make a red runny smeary mess. Cream first. Delicate jam on top.

I think only one of them was Solomon’s son. The other was a minister with delusions of grandeur. They did split Israel though. Since Arry hasn’t got his mits on half the Dutchy of Cornwall, I think the kingdom will be safe 🙏

Thank you for your biblical knowledge! Oh dear, do we have an analogy?

Mind you, I think Rehoboam and Jeroboam got into an argy bargy after their dad died and split Israel between them

How was it that sizes of champagne bottles got named after biblical kings?

Good question....🤔

"Cornish and Devonians stop fighting each other about what goes on scones first and both start fighting BlueParrotRedParrot"
