Sure why not?  I can whip that up in a jiffy. Seriously?!!  Hopefully this was not asked in person so that you didn't have to try to keep a straight face.

No Goreti - fortunately it was by email.  I won't tell you what Mick's reaction was (not printable haha).

This morning I've had another email saying they made a typo mistake - meant to say for 12 people, maximum £50.  Bit more realistic!  But how do you make a bike that small...............not sure if I even want to go there, but it is a friend, so awkward.  Thinking about it.

AHhhh so hard when it's a "friend". They want to pay.....BUT not tooooo much. Very sticky. But my advice to you Katy is charge her as a regular customer....with a small discount....

Thanks June - that's exactly what I intend to do.  It's a friend that works for a charitable trust, who are having redundancies.  They want a cake for a chap that is being made redundant, but of course, being a charity, they don't have much money, nor can they be seen to be spending much under the circumstances.  However, I don't have much money either so it's really not my problem.  I suggested they had something more simple, which would be cheaper, but this is what they say they want.  Of course, that may well change when I give them the price.............

thanks Keith - here is what I came up with.  Did you see the bit about it actually only being for 12 not 50 (typing mistake lol).  So more manageable
