Calling all Scots - 3 Things to take with you
Calling all Scots who are either in Australia or are on the verge of going there. If you had 3 things from Scotland or Scottish items that you could have / take with you to Australia what would they be and why?

Mandy I think I will have to get someone to do that for me. Every time I have tried to make it, it has been a total disaster and ended up in the bin.
Such a waste!!!!!

Find out who is coming out soon and get them to bring you some with them.
My Aunt is in Adelaide and she loves Tunnock Tea cakes, if you haven't tried them you don't know what you are missing, and she is always threatening to take some back with her, don't know if customs would be too happy at that though.

with tablet u need to take your time and cook it nice and slow......most peeps problem is they try and rush it and end up wi wee black bits in it. And once its ready u need to give it a good old beat as this makes it sugary
