There is also this one that I might try. I have some thickish computer paper I could start with. Does anyone know what sort of pencil he is using .... @Reynard ......?

It looks like a very soft pencil but it doesn't wear down that quickly.
Different types of paper can give different results and some are better suited to different pencils .

I buttered two scones for my elevenses..
You'll not believe this but when I stuck them back together, I joined the two tops, and the two bottoms!!

I have heard about Mary Berry's soggy bottoms, but joining two bottoms is beyond the pale!

Were they homemade scones? Or scoones, as I sometimes call them, as in Scone Palace, which is near Kinfauns Castle where I had a holiday many decades ago.

'Ere ! What's going on ? When I try to log in it has forgotten who I am ! . It used to come up all nicely filled in and all I had to do was just click on it . Now it is completely blank and I have to try to remember who I am .

And you'll be trying it out, when it opens?

I think so. They seem to have an appreciation for the Irish-American/German-American combination palate. And it is in the grocery store, replacing their rather good but dark and overly formal restaurant.

Not home-made, but Morrisons finest! (15% discount!)
Aaand.. everyone knows that scone rhymes with gone, not loan or moon.

Fell of the back of a lorry, by any chance.

Sounds painful. A lot to go through for a scone, no matter how good it is.

This one could be pastels and the first one graphite pencil perhaps?
