Just to let you know that a Yorkshire lass will be celebrating in style. Here in Switzerland it is their national day too - flags, parades, bonfires et al - so I'll just pretend its for Yorkshire!

Thanks for the reminder Derek. Decisions now much easier for dinner tonight! Definitely Yorkshire Pudding. You have inspired me to go and make some Yorkshire Parkin too. I still have my Gran's recipe, baking tin and rolling pin (not that I will need that unless a certain person is late for dinner!) Takes me back many years to visits to my Gran and how as children we tucked into the parkin!
