    Ok, I shall accept the temporary membership.....:rolleyes:

    and will post pics of non-birthday cake for my sis as soon as it is done. I had better get a bleeding Blue Peter badge after all this!! :mad::rotfl:

    Who do you think I am, John Noakes? :eek:

    And you still have time to make the top ten, if you're quick! :p
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    Oh yes, that definitely qualifies!

    #9 in the challenge goes to pigpen for great looking Christmas cake and birdfood. :T:T :D

    WOOHOO!!!!! Tonight I shall sleep soundly!!!

    I am inspired to make a chocolate loaf for a friend she did say how lovely that sounded.. does chocolate bread count too? and I'll have another go at carrot cake.. different recipe.. see if I can kill off any more poor unsuspecting birdies... we have a blackbird who seems to be professor Yaffling about rather than flying.. hubby thinks he is injured.. I think he has eaten too much of my baking mush-haps.. like the old Bero advert where the ducks sink.. lol

    Right, I am not talking to you now for 2 reasons.

    1. You're younger than me

    2. You are a full member and not a bleeding temporary one! :mad::D

    I dunno those cheesecakey things looked edible.. (or am I just a pig?)

    I'm having one LAST attempt at a carrot cake.. with a different cooking pattern.. so hopefully this one will work!

    Can I have 'decent carrot cake' vibes please.???. I don't want to kill any more birdies!! lol
