It's nearly pancake day

Mum works in a hotel. She moved here from Ireland in her early 20's. The chef was making pancakes on Thursday this week. She turns to him and asks, "Ken, is it Pancake Tuesday?".

"Oh Rita," he says, "you can take the girl out of Ireland but you can't take Ireland out of the girl."

But that then reminded me to tell her that I'm volunteering at The Kindness Offensive next Tuesday giving out pancakes to the good people of London. www.thekindnessoffensive.com Should be great fun. Pop along to Eds Diner in Soho if you're in the area for a free pancake and a hug.
