As i was away last week for my birthday, the extended family decided they wanted to surprise me with a lovely celebratory meal out yesterday at a very nice carvery in Hazel Grove. I had a brilliant day and cannot thank them enough, but I thought I just had to share a few photographs of the cake they had made for me here. Isn't it brilliant?



Even the t shirt has the word "Etihad" on it. ha ha ha
Pity the team didn't turn up yesterday though, disgraceful performance, if you can call it that!

Nice :-) Did it taste good too?

It was a very nice strawberry sponge Vidar, I didn't want to cut it, it's a work of art! Ha ha ha.

I think I will keep the figure, projector and screen in a biscuit tin for now.

I'm sending a photo of it to the wife now, hint hint looks great Andrew.

Ha ha ha. Hope you get a similar one soon Del!

Missed it by 2 years mate, in fact nearly 3 now, I will put the feelers out for when I get to 60

I'll get you one mate if the missus decides not to bother ha ha.

Amazing cake Andrew, someone went to a lot of trouble, I notice the projector on the cake is in Elmo Grey, someone has good taste

LOL at Bill, I didn't even notice it was an Elmo

More like Beaulieu battleship grey Bill.

Notice how the projected Disney logo is flawless! Ha ha ha

All good banter Bill, and we love em all deep down.

Sorry lads, the projector is the very rare Kipling Multigauge Special, the reason of their rarity is quite simple, folks
keep eating 'em. Lovely cake Andrew, well done everyone.

Here is the wonderful cake Phil presented to one of his guests in the video, as I spoke of earlier.
What a fantastic cake!!

I prefer yours Andrew, it captures the hobby beautifully.

They are both great Hugh, and to say Phil must have organized this one for a friend / fellow collector....well it's extremely thoughtful in my book..
