I assumed my role in baking the Christmas cake was completed once I had
cut out the greaseproof paper to line the tin (I knew the formula for
calculating the circumference from the diameter would come in handy one day)
and washed up the sticky bowls and utensils, but no, apparently I had one
further contribution to make, which was to let it burn while my wife was
talking on the phone; it’s well done but still edible (not by me, I don’t even
like Christmas cake) however not up to the Mary Berry standard required for the
big day, so we’ll call it a prototype and have another go in a week or two.
