Stratos Cake!

Today I'm officially old. To mark the occasion I was presented with this cake....

The attention to detail is astounding (done from pics of my garage)

And in the strangest of LB-related twists it turns out the woman who made it is married to a chap who used to work at Ultima at the same time as a certain Craig White!

How spooky is that! My other half just chose the cake maker from her website and the fact she's close to us (in Loughborough). When she sent over the pics the woman replied to say her husband worked with someone who had gone on to set up their own company making Stratos kit cars.

Small world isn't it?

Happy birthday Leigh. At least it would've been easy to get back to the bakery for the body fit.

Thanks Chaps.

Cake is now cut up.....but the top part is was designed to be removed and kept. Apparently it could keep forever and never go 'off'

Happy birthday for yesterday Leigh, 50 does feel old (I'm a year in front of you), you can now officially start buying the Daily Mail and moaning about Brexit!!

You sure the cake was modelled on your garage, looks to have a finished car in it? :p

[LPH_UK]

The joke about it being finished was made at the time!

Old enough to buy the Daily Mail and moan? I don't buy the Mail but I've been moaning for years......

Great cake, Leigh! Was wondering if it was modelled on your car? If so, did she start putting it together back in 2016? And, what alterations to the standard recipe did she make... hahaha!

Hope you had a good birthday. As for turning 50...long way off for me....in the past... :(
