1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (195-200 degrees C). 2. Mix with a whisk in a big bowl the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. 3. Cut in butter with a butter knife in each hand until mix looks like coarse crumbs. 4. Pour in cream and fold in everything until just incorporated. Do NOT overmix. 5. If mixture seems a little dry, add a little more cream. 6. Fold currants or cranberries into batter. 7. Press the dough in 3 or 4 batches on lightly floured board 1 1/4-inch (3cm) thick. Cut into triangles. All in all about 8-16 scones, depending on size (enough for 4 hungry mouths). 8. Place scones on ungreased cookie parchment. Brush tops with a bit of cream. 9. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Let cool on a rack. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
