When you're in a hole ...

As it was St. David's day I took welshcakes to Zac's last night. When I arrived I found some already on the counter.Thinking I'd better sample one I broke a bit off and tasted it. 'Hm,' I said, 'nice but mine are better.'

At this Baz sidled up to me and whispered that the person who made them was standing at the end of the counter talking to Sean. Quick as a flash I recovered saying loudly, 'But not much better.'

For some reason everyone burst out laughing and Lucy said, 'Stop digging NOW!'

What I meant was that my welshcakes are more sconey than cakey and I prefer them that way. It's all down to personal taste. But somehow it didn't come out that way ...
