If you ever get asked to make a cake, DON'T, it is much harder and more time consuming than it looks. Written by a bloke at the half way mark :wink:

...... do you have any information on doing a batch of fruit scones.....

by **Onyx** on Sat Aug 06, 2005 3:47 am

24 hr emergency bakery store should be able to help you out. PS. If I'm late tomorrow it's because I was still awake at 3am...

by **Nnnnsic** on Sat Aug 06, 2005 4:46 am

If I'm late tomorrow (or today even) it's because I'm lazy and I was awake until 4.

But mostly because I'm lazy.

And I think you've got the wrong approach to this cake thing.

You should've approached it similarly to the way you approach lens lust: buy a cake.

BP, a man has to know his limitations :wink:

Nnnnsic, it's all in the icing! My area is so badly serviced with shops, not one had a cake with a D70 on top. :lol:

Onyx, just be on time

Is this the life of a photographer?

Glen... awake making cake... he'll sleep soon...

Nnnnsic... awake editing images and code... he'll sleep at Birdy's...

Onyx... awake -- err.. for some reason or another... he'll sleep eventually too...

Come on Guys!!!!!
You have to make it!!!!!

- A nice cake for the gang and folks :wink:

- Be ontime with all your fans
- Miss out one sleep won't hurt!

by **Glen** on Sat Aug 06, 2005 7:17 am

You are right Birddy, we can all sleep next week :wink:

by **Onyx** on Sat Aug 06, 2005 9:01 am

Well, I got my token hour and a half's sleep - so I'm good to go.

Seeya soon Glen.

by **Glen** on Sat Aug 06, 2005 9:06 am

1.5 hours

Very impressed Chi, even I got 3.5 hours .Look forward to seeing you.

Glen... looking forward to seeing a photo titled...

"Cake... as interpreted by Glen"

Sounds like you understand the first rule of cake: "It's all about the icing"

The all encompassing rule of thumb is that: "we eat first with our eyes" which probably explains why my eyes are hanging outa my head this morning...lol.

Have a great bridge shot and see you all this afternoon!!!

I'm sure the cake is great Glen, however you weren't asked...you kindly volunteered your cullinary skills

by **Onyx** on Sun Aug 07, 2005 1:20 am

What a great cake it was too. Thanks you Glen for putting so much effort into it. I'm sure the official photographers of the night will post pics soon. It truly is a marvel to look at and a delight to taste.

You were a great tour guide for our harbour bridge pylon climb too, but that's for another thread.

by **Geoff** on Sun Aug 07, 2005 10:57 am

Absolutely fantastic, delicious cake Glen - so many people were impressed!!

by **sirhc55** on Sun Aug 07, 2005 11:25 am

Hidden talents were enough for a Dickensian ”Please sir, may I have more?” :lol:

by **Yedrup** on Sun Aug 07, 2005 4:51 pm

Great cake Glen. As you are a modest person and not one to sing your own praises of seek from others :wink:

I would like to nominate you for the cake next year

oh hell stuff next year what about next week at the mini-meet :lol:

Cheers,
Terry

by **Nnnnsic** on Sun Aug 07, 2005 5:31 pm

I hated the cake so much, I have to ask the following...

Do you have anymore left? :oops:

by **leek** on Sun Aug 07, 2005 6:10 pm

I had to leave early and therefore missed out on the cake... Can you post me a slice please... :-)

by **Glen** on Mon Aug 08, 2005 2:10 pm

Hey, it's not that hard...

I made this one yesterday.

And yes, it really is that colour.

And no, I wont post or email you a slice.
:lol:

Greybeard do you wear a skirt :wink:

No good deed goes unpunished here, Glen.

by **GreyBeard** on Tue Aug 09, 2005 1:54 pm

Now it's definite. Nobody gets a slice.
:cry:

And I only wear a skirt when it matches my handbag.

by **Glen** on Tue Aug 09, 2005 2:09 pm

Greybeard, I think you have pipped me on the cake and I may have topped you on the icing and decorations. Maybe we should do a combined effort? Nah, that wouldn't be fair, looks like you have got the pastry chef award for the Christmas Party :lol:
