    Slightly disappointed with my Christmas cake:o

    Think it was in just a bit too long and is slightly crisp on the top:o

    As I've got loads of fruit I've decided I'm going to make another next weekend.

    Can I ask, do people use butter or Stork in theirs?

    I always use softened butter, it's the only cake I use butter in though. As everyone says, slice the top off. If it still looks dry brandy will sort it out :D It may be fine inside.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    Re selection Boxes

    M&M 184g is £2 in A, so if comparing will be 90p
    Mars and friends 181g £2 in A, so again 90p
    Galaxy selection seems dodgy as different boxes in pictures and a slight weight difference. :eek:

    Maltesers And Friend Selection Box 213G A £3, T £1.50 so APG cost £1.35
    M&M 184g A £2, T £1 so 90p
    Cadbury & Friends 180g A £2, T £1 so 90p
    Cadbury stocking filler 208g A rollback £2 T £1.50 so £1.35
    Milky Bar 64g A £1, T £1 so 90p

    REMEMBER these prices for T not until tomorrow , Also A might retaliate with more price cuts or multis

    I hope so but she's just rung me they think he may have got the stomach bug :eek: I've messaged all my friends and there's a few jobs re pointing a patio etc to see him on until he finds something. Unfortunately the building trade goes quiet around now but he can turn his hand to most things so he should be ok DH is going to ask at his work tomorrow, fingers crossed he hasn't got the bug and has just got himself worked up.
    You want to protect your kids from everything you can but unfortunately there's no protection from life.
    Everything happens for a reason :o
    Oh no Hope he is ok and dont pass back again:eek:

    Morning all hope the elite are well.

    Message from my boss thus morning a complaint was received about me:eek:
    Was my cakes dry, soup salty, was I rude to a customer . :o
    Apparently its inappropriate to tell a customer , when they tell you a pheasant has a broken leg in the car park, and asks what to do with it. that they make a nice stew .:rotfl::rotfl:

    I think your response was very appropriate...... some people are stupid, shame your boss did not laugh it off!
