SES Forums

Boeingdriver, I think we're in agreement that extra-marital affairs are a grim business. I know some people who have had that experience, (not SES I have to say), both as perpetrators and as victims. In dealing with them I have tried to be even-handed and compassionate, not seeing it as my place to ...

Yes, Marzipan is that stuff made out of squashed almond paste (I think) you get under the icing in wedding cakes.
