    BUGGRITMILLENIUMHANDANDSHRIMP

    friend has just reminded me that I'd promised to make a Christmas cake for her and her mum :eek:

    I've never made one before and promised her when we were a wee bit... erm... tiddly on some brew :o

    OK... deep breath... it shall be done...

    It is basically a rich fruit cake right? With the mixed fruit soaked in... erm... brandy?
    OK, I can do this... I will do this and I will make one for myself too :D
    Not right now though, cos I'm going to bed...

    Tomorrow nights' project...
    Note to self, beware of promises made to friends when inebriated as they shall remember and cash them in...
    Good night and sleep well my friends

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Evening folks :D

    Been a busy wee day today at work and I am now relaxing with a couple of brews, some cheese on toast and catching up with friends on here ;)

    Have cashed out my OO survey points after hearing about Sashybo's issues with them... not going to let em build up anymore, soon as I can cash out, I will...

    Will be starting the Christmas cake(s) project at the weekend...

    The IPA is bubbling away happily in the fermenter...:beer:

    Hope everyone has had a good one today

    Just popped over to see how you were doing after your visit to me yesterday. As per usual you are doing well. I love all your cakes. I am trying to lose weight so it is definitely a danger zone over here. Cheese on toast. Yum. So simple. So perfect. Have a good day tomorrow :)
    If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.

    US maybe look for a dundee cake recipe? Making a pretty pattern with almonds on the top is a lot easier than trying to do icing.
