I prefer the scone/skon/scown or whatever to have sultanas or raisins in them. Don't care which way the cream and jam goes on though because I usually end up spilling one or both down my shirt anyway!

All the big scone question now marie is Cornish and this questions comes up a lot . The drive down was really good but we stopped for what I thought was late lunch at a hotel on Dartmoor and we are staying here . It’s still hot down here . Must be a first as I have woken up 2am for a drink and now can’t sleep because it’s so hot .
Spent many happy days down here when I was a kid and when I had the first Capri .
I did a little wave as we got on the A38 andy . Spotted a very nice 1920s ish blue rolls Royce in blue . No capris .
Also thought I spotted the mother in law on the Moor but it was a big cow , easy done .
Back to scones , they do need currents in as well also they should be warmed . Thoughts gents

Not keen on jam or cream, but I prefer Scones with current/sultanas and butter. Might get some at Tesco today
Warm though...

I find the supermarket ones a bit dry as if they are skimping on the butter in the mix. I swear some of them use a sweetener to cut down the amount of suger they have to own up to on the packaging too.

Sorry I am with Paul they are very dry at super markets , these they make fresh as the wife says they only take about 15 mins to bake ( Iam sure I have the time right but could be wrong ) went to Trego mills yesterday and got a tin of mercury grey paint for £3 just in case I need to spray a little bit somewhere .
Still warm

If I ate scones with cream and jam that is how I would have it, the Cornish way. No reason it just seems easier that way.....
Is that Mrs JM photo bombing the pic?
Outrageous......

She's probably happy to play second best to the Capri, but draws the line at a scone getting all the attention!
Jason, just jesting....

Yes that’s the wife Andy who was laughing at me taking a picture for us Capri mad men , she could not work out what cream teas had to do with capris .
Andrew I am very lucky as the cream tea was for me as the wife is a vegan so she had her nuts & fruit .
That photo was in the Two Bridges Hotel I would love to bring the Capri down but it’s the lanes some are so small I would worry about marking the paint work .
But it’s Back home in the morning can’t wait to see the Capri sorry kids .
All Nick I phoned Home just a second ago and was told that there was men on the tv in shorts running around with a ball and could here my eldest and Dad shouting something like “ what a time to ring “ so spoke to my daughter who was in the kitchen watching two blokes in shorts hitting a ball over a net . Funny what your kids and parents get up to when your away .
Just one note the hotel we are staying at has 25 Rooms and I asked the manger that if I win the lotto can I bring 25 Capris here for a long week and take over the Hotel and he said Capris we would love to see 25 capris here .
So fingers crossed I hit the 6 numbers soon . ( still worried about the small lanes )
