Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

We never got round to eating last year's Christmas cake (in fact I didn't even ice it) so I won't be needing to make that this year. And I have two Christmas puddings from last year as well.

We have a Christmas pudding from 2014, I am sure it's still good :-)

I'm keeping quiet about the, erm, vintage of the Christmas pudding in our cupboard. I think it came from Birmingham with us when we moved in 2011.

My mother fed us a two year old Christmas Pudding once. It had turned to treacle like stodge. Not good, not good at all. Put me right off my pud for a few years. I've got round that now by making my Christmas Pud a month before Christmas and not a day later :)

It's from go faster food;

175g butter
280g golden syrup
225g mincemeat
Grated zest of 2 oranges
Large handful raisins (I forgot these)
425g porridge oats

Oven 170

Melt butter and syrup, then add everything else. If mixture too sloppy add more porridge.

Turn into lined swiss roll tin and bake for 15-20.

My son said it was like a bite of Christmas!

Sorry, just realised the error on my first post. It was mincemeat flapjacks!

I like the sound of that, Star. Must give it a go. With all that fruit it must be nearly a salad so bound to be healthy 😜
