    Fairly quick, very easy amd my kids like it.
    Would suggest cooking the sausages in a frying pan before adding to the main pan at the same time as the batter otherwise they have a tendency to stick.

    What sort of tea are we talking about? Posh, West Country, Northern, or the drink?

    jds - tgotb Junior refuses to eat sausages, rather annoyingly. What sort of kid won't eat sausages?!? Same with chips :roll:

    no dear fellow but no civilized man would drink coffee after 3 so it makes sense to switch to beer, hydration is VERY important

    Surely West Country Tea is scones with jam and clotted cream?

    Much the same stuff as the burgers that she devours quite happily, I should imagine.

    Maybe I should try a two-part toad in the hole. Sausages in one end, mini burgers in the other...

    No, it's clotted cream *then* jam. Have some standards, man.

    In other news, when did this become Cake Stop?

    I didn't want to get into a "my yokel's better than your yokel" debate, so I was careful not to specify the order. West Country scones come with jam and clotted cream, and you can choose which to put on first.

    Never had scones with butter *and* jam/cream, it's always been either butter or jam & cream. Is this another regional variant? Somerset?

    All cycling should allow potential for the occasional cake stop, even commuting...
