Shrove Tuesday (or Pancake Day) traditionally was to mark the beginning of Lent and a chance to empty the cupboards using the last of the eggs, butter and sugar. This year Pancake Day falls on Tuesday 12^th February and we have the perfect recipe and kitchen accessories to make tasty pancakes. 

Our new handy storage jar with ceramic lid is a great way to store your pancake mix and once your mix has gone use it to store other kitchen essentials.

Christmas Party

The Christmas party is over for another year and plenty of fun was had by all.

We started the day full of mud and mayhem, where we drove three different off road vehicles, 4x4 off road driving, Argo Cat and powerturn mayhem vehicle, unfortunately we ended up with a flat tyre so some of us had a go at reverse steer driving too.

Turn the steering wheel one way and the vehicle goes the other, we were also blind folded and had directions being shouted at us, unfortunately we weren’t allowed to say left and right, we had to shout rhubarb and custard! 

 

This twin-seater kart was driven by two drivers , working as a team you had to steer around a track.

We each got a chance to drive a land rover around a very wet, muddy and steep track.

We arrived at the Belfry dressed to impress ready for a 3 course meal and to dance the night away.

 We even managed to squeeze in the photo booth for a picture.
