I would like to point out to the world at large that inannajones makes the best Christmas Puddings in it. This one is excellent.

A bad one

Could be horribly dry or so soggy and heavy you could sink a ship with it. I'm not sure how, but experience confirms that people manage to make 'em that way.

Aye. There's an ongoing legend that one of the Allied men in the trenches in World War II left some Chistmas Pudding behind in a retreat. The German soldiers thought it was some kind of explosive and blew it up.

I've also seen (and tasted, more's the pity) one that was sour. Yech.

a bad pud

[(Anonymous)]

Last year my mother was called away to the phone when she was making the pudding - at the time it was in the oven. No one else was around to rescue it from said oven, the result being that the pud was burnt rather crisply.

It didn't taste very good, but it was edible when custard was applied.

That's my experience of a bad pud ;-)
