Hmm interesting:

"I asked her how many more entries there had been, but she just started laughing and said I was the only one.
"About 11 years ago I entered a show with some fruit scones. I was the only entrant but I came third."
I am suspicious. Either her baking is so consistently appallingly bad that judges just refuse to give her 1st place, or she's made her professional competitive baking career by entering competitions with no...er... compertition. Kinda like Rocky getting in the ring and beating himself up!

Maybe she's an evil cake baker... furious.gif

I would if Rocky only ever went in the ring with himself and only ever came second! He'd be rubbish.

But... they weren't until you posted. It's like a paradox. You only have yourself to blame.

I'm not pedantic. You've used the wrong 'your'.
