Me plus 1 please!! - provided a shedload of snow isn't dumped over the hills at the weekend! Q Ggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

See you in the pub people!

Hi folks Just thought I'd post a quick plug for fundraising event for the British Red Cross on Wednesday 9th December. It's 10 "up-and-coming" comedians for a bargainous tenner (£8 conc). Each comedian does a 10 min slot so even if they're not up to scratch they won't be on for long! Unfortunately I won't be able to make it as it's mid-week... drat and double drat! Details below if you're interested... Q xx The inaugural British Red Cross comedy fundraising night in Yorkshire takes place on Wednesday 9 December in the prestigious 400 capacity Platinum Suite at Sheffield Utd FC's Bramall Lane football ground. It will feature 10 comedians for just £10 ! Plus: Compere CK Goldiing, raffle, spot prizes, and the unexpected... All proceeds from the night will benefit the Red Cross in Yorkshire. We're delighted to announce that Barbara Nice has agreed to perform. Barbara is a headliner on the club circuit; had her own highly successful one woman show 'Barbara - Vampire Slayer' at the Edinburgh Fringe; starred in BBC2 sitcom 'Thin Ice'; and was a regular in Peter Kay's 'Phoenix Nights' and 'Max & Paddy's Road to Nowhere.' More acts to be announced soon - stay tuned! Doors - 7pm, show starts at 8pm (til late) Free Parking - in adjacent car park Cabaret style seating, late bar Tickets - £10 (£8 concessions) Over 18s only Ticket HOTLINE: 0114 242 7379 Online booking: available soon at http://www.redcross.org.uk/giggle For more information contact Max at mnewton@redcross.org.uk http://www.sheffieldconference.com/Special-Events/British-Red-Cross-teams-up-with-Sheffield-United-f

Oh no! Spotted this one a bit late! I'm back on Friday 13th for graduation. If anyone wants to skip the ghost tour and join me in the pub let me know! I am also back on the 20th for a gig - could meet the ghosty people in the pub for some spirits (or prob just beer) afterwards if someone lets me know where y'all are at! mwah-haha!!!

I don't believe the Pole has flu - I think it's her Friday night shenanigans that's done it! For non-farcebook people here's the link to my pics from le weekend: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=166867&id=704085489&l=2e334dde44 ;-)

To kick things off the recipe for my courgette cake can be found at: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/5959/lemon-courgette-cake.aspx Ingredients 200g (7 oz) grated courgette 150g (5 oz) caster sugar 1 egg 125ml (4 fl oz) vegetable oil 200g (7 oz) plain flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda 1/4 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 2 teaspoons lemon zest Preparation method 1) Preheat oven to 160 C / Gas mark 3. Grease a loaf tin. 2) In a bowl, beat together the courgette, sugar, egg and oil. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, salt, bicarbonate of soda and baking powder; stir in the cinnamon and lemon zest. Stir the flour mixture into the courgette mixture just until blended. Pour the batter into the prepared tin. 3) Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven until a knife inserted in the centre comes out clean. Remove from heat and cool about 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Hi everyone Just thought I'd start a thread for folk to post their scrummy cake recipes! Thank you for indulging me in my obsession! I will miss Tuesday nights with you all - thanks for the T-shirt too!! The Quine (quine: girl) xx Example usage: "Hud on you! Are ye a loon or a quine?" Translation: "Wait a moment you! Are you a boy or a girl?"

p.s. Is there a spare copy of the ball pictures going round? I never saw them!!

The cakes just weren't up to scratch - AND people were promising to bring cakes and then "forgetting". There's only so many times a girl can be let down before she has to wake up and smell the coffee (which smells bland with no accompanying cakey-aroma).... plus I've been offered a job in Stoke-on-Trent and I'm moving to Northwich... And my kitchen now stinks of shrimp paste thanks to Rob!! See you Tue!!

Hello Ladies! Is it too late to join you next Friday? I checked with my Red Cross manager and have been relieved of Elton John - mainly because the old diva hasn't sold as well as they'd expected! Let me know if I should bring my charity unleashed vouchers if we're going on a cocktail binge afterwards! Need to go out in style after all! Q x

Thought I'd get my name down early whilst you lot are still at t' pub, for next Tuesday 20th. Sadly it will probably be my last session ever - nothing to do with those nasty reds! So bring on the cake!! (I'm not just saying that for extra cake) Q :-)

No cake for the 13th please! I think Mani's vanilla and strawberry cheesecake was so good it will take 2 weeks to top it... I have a date with 2 hairy bikers next week but sign me up for the 20th please!

I'll be there on the 6th! How did it get to October already?? Pinch, punch!

Do you have any details about time & place - I need to be in Bradford in the late afternoon/evening so it will depend on timing as to whether I can come play too...

Me for 29th please! Legs will have recovered by then and I'll be in need of cake ;-)

I'm up for the 15th! The cake people had better deliver the goods this week though!! ;-)

Me for the 8th too please! Ta! Hmmmmmm - Cake! Q p.s. here's a link to my ball photos for anyone who wants a gander: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=152066&id=704085489&l=1f77fd17c6 there's also a vid but don't know how to send a link to it...

Hi Pooks Just wondered if the photos from the official papper have been posted anywhere yet? Will try and get mine up on farcebook or somewhere soon! Good times - thanks for organising it all!

How about football with dogs?? As in dogs as team members not as footballs!! There's always Salsa at the Forum but might be a bit crowded if the whole badders lot landed on them!

Hi Jaap Sorry, I've been away and not been able to get on-line to sign-up for tonight. I did text Paul last week to sign me up but I can't see my name on the list. Hope there's room for a small one Q ;-)
