I LOVE the UK Eurovision entry! Plus the title is what I say every time I look at what’s going on in the political world. #whatthehelljusthappened

Happy pancake day!
My lovely mum used this recipe and it’s the one the Church used to sell pancakes on the high street for I think the last 30 years or so! Mum would have loved me to share it.

8oz self raising flour
4oz sugar
2 eggs
2 tablespoons oil
1 or 2 teaspoons baking powder
Cup of milk
