Had to log off and go and make a spotted dick. It is now steaming for the next hour or so... soon to be eaten with lashings of hot creamy yellow birds custard.

I used the recipe from the Dairy Book of British food that Lesley recommended and I have to admit that it tasted fantastic. Just have to think what pudding to make next.... Decisions decisions.... Life is so hard.
