Just noticed - the knifes on the left hand side are crossed over.... it leads to arguements that you know!

Hmm I never noticed the knives, but they didn't sit on the table for long anyway - Graham started cutting the cakes (there were two - a little fruit cake with sparklers on it, I think maybe Carol made it herself?) and the sponge one made by a specialist cake maker - not sure where - Dunblane maybe?)  It tasted very nice anyway.  I noticed the animals were spirited away before the cakes were cut - maybe they are hoping to breed from them?  Good party!!

You're welcome - hope you didn't mind coming away when we did, would have stayed longer but my dogs hadn't seen me since 10 am except for a "Hi, guys, have a chew, I'm off out, see you later"  I had to stay up till one to keep them company as they hadn't wound down till then.

The cake was made by Celebration Station in Dunblane. They've been there for 16 years to my certain knowledge and are very good.

It was a very good party indeed! Great sausages - thanks Lulu and Miss Piggy! :pig: :pig:

The Cake is brilliant - love the pig especially.

Thanks for sharing them with us Sandy - great inspiration for me to try some piggy icing
