The Mark Dennison Show Alternative National Anthem
There's nowhere quite like England,
England is my home.
My thoughts are always with her,
no matter where I roam.
(by David in Mansfield)
We are an island nation,
proud of who we are.
Not always liked by others
but first to hit the bar!
(by Sally in Arnold)
There's nowhere quite like England,
where life is fair and free.
We welcome Everybody
and love our cup of tea.
(by Jan in Newark )
Hope and glory is our story,
always walk with pride.
Keep your heads held high my lads
try to stay on side.
(by Julie in Warsop)
There's nowhere quite like England,
it is the place to be.
We've beef and spuds for dinner
and muffins for our tea
(by Ann)
Back in Nineteen Sixty Six,
they said our luck was up.
But here again, in twenty ten

Children in Need recipe
Recipe for my Lime Cheesecake (with "crumbly bottom", as the judges said:
1 packet of ginger biscuits
butter (1 tbsp?)
2 tubs mascarpone cheese
2 limes
Icing sugar
Dark chocolate
While melting butter, bash ginger biscuits (don't worry if they're not powdered, it's good for texture!).
Mix with the butter and place in a suitable dish; refrigerate for around 6 hours, this allows the base to firm up.
For the topping, mix the mascarpone with the zest/juice of 2 limes....add icing sugar to taste. Spread mixture over the base and grate/shave dark chocolate on top.
Enjoy! -
