I am hoping you will help me in a touch of market research. Out of several topics to choose from, I picked scones, now I need to know what you all think of them, and some rough estimate of your ages and where you live.

So if anyone can help...

I do like a good bit of shingle.

Plain scones. Spread with Strawb jam followed by clotted cream and a cup ( china cup) of freshly brewed PG.
To be consumed while seated outside a cafe @ Cheddar gorge on a long hot summers day. Then a trip to St. Ives followed by seven wives.

I lost my virginity to a scone.

It was that or a rice pudding, I forget.

This is just an elaborate plan to find out members' ages isn't it?

If only, unfortunately it is for a University assignment...

Oh and i have a fab recipe for my famous cheese scones. No amount of torturing will get me to share our famous family recipe.

* Is that a metro sigh of relief i hear?

Bran scones are surprisingly lovely. With some butter.

Haven't had a scone for years. They are perfectly delicious in my memory but I haven't felt the compulsion to buy one. I don't know why. They're not as indulgent as fudge donuts which I do occasionally buy.

Maybe scones need to appear more luxurious and indulgent to make me want one.

Scones with top hats and monocles is what you want.

Can you update your avatar to a picture of you with both a monocle and a top hat?

Scones (pronounced correctly, just ask Willy Hanson) should be consumed only at The Polly Tea Rooms in Marlborough High Street.
