My husband and I have been planning for some months to make and deliver the family Christmas pudding from Harwich to Rommsey.We are a large family, and also wanted to feed the local working mens club. We decided on an 8 foot diameter plum duff. Messers Wade,renowned potters have made a 6'9" diamter plate with integral lugs to attatch it to the chassis outriggers. THe mechanics were carried out by renowned "follyologist" and wire netting designer Algenon Chuff. We made the cake using the facilities of the local brewery,Messers Brewster and Shaw. The plate has been mounted on the Chassis. The pud placed in position, We have cut out a slice to accomodate the engine and chauffer.We have had surprisingly little trouble registering the machine with the D.V.L.A. as a "Motorised meal" under the construcion and use act of 1901.The inspector looked at the machine after his lunch hour in the local pub. His circle of drinking friends had been infiltrated and he was plied with pickle onions and Guiness,so he took little persuasion to legalise the documentation. NOW here is where We need your help.After extensive road tests AT 8 mph the holly blows off and the brandy vaporizes and the following motorist in the slip stream are becoming discommoded. Help !

It is essential when driving a xmas pudding to secure any decorations inside steralized netting. The problem may be solved with regard to the discarding of fumes by increasing your road speed. It has been speculated that at 15 mph a vacuum is formed behind the vehicle thus containing these. A word of warning. As soon as you stop do not walk round the rear for about a minute as those trapped must be allowed to disipate.
