Why don't you start the tradition?

Hi loopywren,

Do you have clotted cream with your scones? When I was in Australia I fell in love with clotted cream, but it is very difficult to find in the US and really doesn't taste the same.

Won't be able to accommodate you all together but wish you were here, we had lovely rain and a lovely sunshine day in Pretoria, so clean and bright. A drop of sunshine greetings to you cold ones up North.

A Finnish friend of mine once mentioned that the Finns have a saying that states, "There is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing".

We've been hearing about you on the news. Hope things are getting better. Take care and you and your ponies stay warm.

If I can get it but traditionally clotted cream is served with the scones in Devon and Cornwall. We can buy clotted cream in the main supermarkets and it is the best ever

I lived in South Africa, Cape Town 1963-65, I loved your country, it is so beautiful, we did a round trip up the garden route, across to Drakensburg Mountains, home via Durban, Vaslley of Thousand Hills and Orange Free State as it was then, fabulous, but very strange trying to cook a traditional Christmas Dinner for the visiting sailors from the ships. Much better to have a brei (bbq)on the beach. We use to have a traditional tea in a hotel in Adderley Street but cannot remember the name.
