Photo of a Poem on the Underground piece on the tube in London titled Epitaph on a Tyrant by W.H. Auden. Poem: "Pefection, of a kind, was what he was after. And the poetry he invented was easy to understand; He knew human folly like the back of his hand. And was greatly interested in armies and fleets; When he laughed, respectable senators burst with laughter; And when he cried the little children died in the streets." January 1939

Well at least the season of Christmas "pop up" ice-skating rinks has passed

Have you rewarded yourself with more jaffa cakes?

This year's Christmas cake. Not bad for my first time using fondant if I may say so!
