> G'Morning all, rain, rain, rain, and more rain with wind, I have a funeral to attend in the morning I sure hope this rain has gone, but the forcaste doesn't sound like it will be. The twit next door has a pool which is filthy and overflowing, what a mess X-( He probably forgot he even has a pool and would need a search party to help find it in the long grass. They have 6 children, who are all in the care of DOC's.

> I have been booked to make a sponge for one of Mum's dear old friends, they are having a biggest morning tea next Wednesday. I have never made a sponge, so I am going to do a trial run today. I'm making Mum a lemon slice to take, found the recipe on the net.

Hi Freddie sounds like you have a difficult neighbour.........i did have a great sponge receipe but cant find it sorry...... although this one on the net is very like the one i used to make........i did sift the flour 3 times and then you fold in the flour with a wooden spoon,
Prepare tins...spray and line bottom with baking powder.
Separate 4 eggs....beat whites till stiff
Dissolve 6oz Sugar in 2 tblsp boiling water [as much as possible ]
