Hi Teresa-Aww no, just a few days left too! :S

Hi Maria-My husband and I both had the same thought at the same time when we faced it: “This is just like the Jack the Ripper tour!” Toffee decorations are definitely lovely additions.

Hi Belimda-Oh I didn’t realise there was a tour, sounds interesting! Might have to go on that!

Hi SydneyGal -Yes I’ve read Playing Beattie Bow (it was on the school curriculum) but this was most definitely Jack the Ripper!

Hi Cakelaw-There’s something so nice about being a stranger in your own city. I feel like I can be curious but I’m safe too? Ooh that technicolour toffee sounds amazing, I must check it out!

Hi the projectivist-I didn’t mind it really, I thought it was quite interesting and certainly looked nice to eat! Haha maybe but perhaps they felt like they needed a bit of help from the plates?

Hi Amelia-Thanks!

After some careful consideration I decided to make the blog feed a partial feed. The reason being for that is simply traffic. When people read the stories through google reader, they’re not counted as traffic to my site. And the sad truth is that for most blogs to survive, we need traffic.

Food blogs are notoriously expensive to keep up, not only the cost of the blog itself and hosting but also the cost of the food made and eaten out so keeping up traffic is one step towards being able to have NQN pay for itself. It’s just not possible to do this long term in the same vein as producing a brand new story every single day is very labour intensive.

I’m not sure which feed reader you’re using but mine is very easy to click through to the story, there is a little arrow that clicks through to it and it’s brought up in a new tab instantly. Perhaps yours is more difficult? I use google reader if that helps

Anyway I hope I don’t lose any readers and that you don’t mind clicking on the forward arrow. I hope you understand my position and I the fact that I want NQN to continue for many years to come

Hi Lilia-My feet were fine thanks. A walk after dinner is good for the digestion. It was barely a walk at that, less than 10 minutes of walking really.

I’ve only tried three but I liked the atmosphere here and at the Intercontinental but the Sugar hit at the Kings Cross hotel was pretty good but I did not like the atmosphere or location very much.

Hi FFichiban-Yes only a few days to go you’re right! I love the historical building in The Rocks and often think I’d like to live there! Yes mild licorice is good indeed…

Which is the best sugar hit that you can recommend to us since October going to be finished soon?

(please please go back to full feeds! I love reading all your goodness in my feedreader!)
