Good God! You are indeed a fast lady, Ruth - I am a little slow, myself and had missed the astonishing fact that 2000 and 1000 were in fact altogether different happenings which happened in but the twinkling of an eye..

my boss was prescribed some kind of speed related substance in the form of diet pills - that was scary

he's stopped taking them now as he had an allergic reaction...

Good god that sounds really worrying. I won't take a pill unless my doctor can prove to me that it is necessary for me to take it.

Scone Lover, correct me if I'm wrong, but your avatar looks like sponge cake rather than scones. What's that all about?

Why should scones be round? It would be far more economical of time and effort if they were of a shape that tesselates so that you do not have to re-roll the dough. Also the scones from the first rolling always taste best!
