Have you heard the one about the rugby player and the tart?

Hello peeps, how is your Sunday?  Ours has been pretty non-eventful, for which I am truly grateful.  Yesterday, we should have been heading for a BBQ to celebrate Toad's mate's 50th birthday but we were both so tired after a manic work week that neither of us could face a three hour drive for a sausage.  I did tell Toad that if it was the BBQ he wanted, I could burn him a burger for his tea.

Instead of that, I made my first ever Tarte Tatin!  I don't "do" apples so I used peaches for this one.

And with a good old fashioned dollop of double-cream - I thought I'd gone to heaven!  Can't tell you how relieved I was when it came out of the pan in one piece with no burnt caramel to be seen, I had visions of going into town this week looking for a new one.

And the rugby player?  Here he is:

Ingredients for this card:

Just in case you can't make out the words, it says:  Rugby is a good occasion for keeping thirty bullies far from the center of the city (Oscar Wilde).

Here is the not very subtle inside

And to finish, here is a close up of that young man, complete with bruised shin,  filthy shorts and golden Gavin Henson boots
