Old Chap


My sister Simmone has started calling me old chap recently. It got me wondering is it because of the 50 milestone or the up coming royal nuptials? Kind of getting into the whole stiff upper lip, plum in the mouth thing.... So I asked her and she said years ago she used to say "tootle pip, old chap" when I would leave and I do remember it now. So still pondering why the tootle pip faded. pondering....

This is the cake she has made for tonights celebration. Gamin wedding cake for Will and Kate.

Oh pondering..........I think it came from the BBC and all their lovely shows that they use to air and i have always though and said i think i was ment to be in a different era. I love the english pompus bastards, they always make me laugh, full of airs and graces but a little bit naughty. I think i like the way they celebrate. always reminds me of dads family and sweet caroline.......x
