No, because you didn't seal then ends of the cave line and then melt them onto the main knot to prevent the knot from coming undone

Happy New Year David and hopefully see you on the 27/28th.

Not a chance, unless....
1. It has a chip inside which keeps telling you how crap other chrissy puds are and how feckin marvelous it is.

2. It was made it a batch/team of three and wasn't baked solo.

3. There is two puds in good old US of A, which are the two best in the whole world, one of which has a feckin mental chip which for the last 6-7 years has gone looney spouting all sorts of crap and the other one has the refined chip which publicly disowns the other pud but privately worships the cooker it was baked in.

4. If on a shelf of 12 puds it ignores all the others except the one made with the same ingredients. [Get Janos to explain this one. ]

5. It is made with low fat ingredients..........no, what l mean is that it tells everyone it is, but secretly its the same as the rest.

6. Even if, for some unknown reason, a problem occurs with the baking, the rest of the unwashed must not be told.

7. It is baked in an old fashioned historic way and ignores the modern way.

8. The silver hood is not puddir, it is not needed. No pud needs a reflective patch, because the baker, being part of the team, always knows where it is.

9.



There are many more reasons, but the scotch won't reveal them to me at the moment, so please add your own.

HOWEVER, be aware that the puds that are baked right are very sensitive, so please do not be insulting with your replies.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Diving Dude again.

And it was sooooo deserved too

9. Never served with brandy butter, cream or custard as that would be masking a bad recipe with unneccessary dairy produce.......

Christmas Puddings are cooked in boiling water, not baked. If you were a better f*cking cook you would know that
