Judging from the constant barrage of calamities that occur whenever Nick is around is there going to be enough space on the server?  point:

Don't hunt for it ~ make your own. Oh and my mother had a rabbit shaped mould made out of aluminium. Every Sunday for tea. I hate the stuff.

These insights into the Wench household's domestic life are fascinating  point:

If you want leave out the lemon and add some raspberry/strawberry whatever you like. My recipe does say "Basic Blancmange" right at the beginning.
