      OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh my word only an expert could make 3 flavors and decorate it so perfectly. Ali has a calling should she decide to retire too.

    OMD - that is just too good to eat, surely??? But I guess a pretty fair attempt at demolition was accomplished... Congrats to you both for arriving at this point. Now onward and upward! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

    That is the perfect cake to celebrate your retirement with although it must have been tough to cut into it. We are also curious as to the flavor(s) inside. Congrats on your next chapter together.

      Gail notes that it was her now ex-colleague Joanne, who is not fond of dogs, who chopped off the head!

    Wow. Magnificent, in concept and execution. Clearly, Gail's co-workers and boss care for her and will miss her! I guess that means you're now the Boss, Bertie. I hope you see fit to provide Gail with plenty of treats and praise.
