just reading in the guardian about what and why exactly, and apparently it's in decline, BUT the 18-24 year olds are still at it good and proper. Did you never eat pancakes for a meal when you were little? Liesbeth, our babysitter, used to make them for us in our lunch break once or twice a year, pretty much the only time we'd go to her house instead of ours. But it was also one of those meals you'd choose if it was your birthday, or if you'd caught the bean in the dessert on Twelfth Night.

Hmmm.. "The pancake is featured in cookbooks as far back as 1439 and the tradition of tossing or flipping them dates back at least as far as the 17th century."

I went to Aldi and bought pancake mix, the thinnest bacon I could find, sour apples, thick sirup and icing sugar. Let's see if I can how em Brits how to make proper pancakes tomorrow!

Right, I did get myself a GP, but now the hospital is refusing to pick up the phone, gmbl.

edit: Am I right in thinking a GP appointment card shouldn't be advertising the local hairdresser/estate agent/hair removal salon?
