St George's Day

I'll be at Westminster chained to the railings burning my macaroons and Earl Grey if I'm ever ordered to take down my England flag on the grounds of racism.

I can see the headlines now.....

'RISHTON TERRORIST ARRESTED IN RACISM PLOT'
A Lancashire man was arrested today after police raided his kitchen and found materials that are known components of potentially dangerous objects known locally as 'Eccles Cakes'. Ken Moss, 32, of Rishton in Hyndburn was defiant as he was dragged away and insisted that the cakes were for personal consumption. His wife, who cannot be named for legal reasons, broke down in tears and was released on bail following her arrest for aiding and abetting terrorist activity in the UK.
It is understood by Metropolitan Police that the Eccles Cakes were due to be 'baked for England' on 23rd April for St George's Day. The move is believed to have been racially motivated and has been condemned by government officials. The trial continues.

Re: St George's Day
 

Huh, cheap imports from Yorkshire flooding the market again!

Why can't we have something really English like Chorley cakes?

:D

Re: St George's Day
 

I have a pantry full, already slain.

Much more palatable if they're hung, prior to going in a pie.

;)

Re: St George's Day
 

or a hollands pie.

nah scratch that idea let the folk outside of accrington who dont know any better eat them :D

Re: St George's Day
 

Well hung, one presumes.

Re: St George's Day
 

I stand corrected in my choice of patisserie....

My wife bakes the most amazing Chorley cakes I've ever had and her Eccles cakes are out of this world. Little wonder I've put on 3st since meeting her!

I give the dragon's equivalent of a pork scratching to the dog, the day after St. George's day.

All gristle, and very little meat.
