Ahh the memories and Tea

Just got off the phone with big big sis and we remembered a story about an ex work colleague of hers and the events at one tea break.

to set the scene....a Glasgow hospital, all present are from west central Scotland (apart from one from the North East of S'land) and are having tea..... cakes had been bought to supplement the precious brew....

One of the company is looking slightly down, she is questioned by another-'who stole your scone?

Answer from only Aberdonion in the room - 'well it wisny me, mine wis a Paris Bun'

Note to any non WCSers among you: when someone has stolen your scone you look sad or depressed. It is a saying, an idiom if you will... it doesn't actually mean you are now without baked goods!

oh the happy times....

And here are some scones as everyones gran used to make. My gran's were always better than my mums... I dont know why......;-)

This may also be related to my earlies Jokes post... which caused great hilarity when I read it out to Sis tonight... told you it was funny!
