A Sweet Model Railway Plea

Dear all. After a rather quiet few months i’m very pleased to say that Anthony “Tony” Worrall-Thompson and his son Heston Blumenthal are at last back working on their enormous “Fudgeworth” model village (a scale model of Beckworth made entirely of fudge). But having tired of just making accurate buildings and people out of the sugar-derived building material the celebrity chefs have set their sites on something really mind-blowing. Heston’s Dad told me over a few shandys “we want to mobilise the miniature inhabitants of Fudgeworth and the real people of Beckworth by building a sit-on model railway around the town. Made of toffee.” Between pints he added “But we need all of Beckworth’s residents to stop being so lazy and move their lardy a***s into their kitchens… They need to make at least twenty-five kilograms of toffee each to get this part of the model finished in time for Christmas 2018. Or the year after”… So let’s get baking Beckworth, Heston and his Pa need you. And as we are an equal opportunities hotel with wheelchair access and newly-painted fire extinguishers there’s no excuse for differently-abled residents and the unemployed not personally delivering toffee. Thanks, Sandy Luton, General Manager, Hill View Hotel
