Thanks Snowowl - I'm a bit slow off the mark - the next clue - What am I???
I'm a small tree, native to Europe. I have pretty yellow flowers in Spring - but not everyone wants me in their garden?

That's the trouble with winning, having to think about the next one.  OK. I'm diminutive in stature but huge in usefulness as I grow in the dry soil under trees. My leaves are as worthy as my flowers. |

Don't suppose it matters if I do one?
I come from a palm tree, and when I'm processed, I can be made into a milk pudding.

I didn't know you could eat them!!!  So what is a Manchester tart then, without meaning to disrupt the thread?  |

Post by Shrubrose on Nov 19, 2007 17:35:22 GMT
We used to get it at school for lunch - 'afters', of course! It's a thin sweet pastry base, thin layer of jam, thick custard topping, sometimes sprinkled with coconut. Cheap and cheerful ;D

Sounds yummy, but keep guessing Here's a clue. It is sometimes called, rudely, the same name as eggs you might find in ponds. ;D |
