The Cake

May is a month of birthdays. Sadly it actually begins with mine (yesterday), which means I can't build the month to a crescendo of present goodwill. Anyway, today was my mum's turn (Mel's dad is later in the month, and Mel herself at the very end), and this was the cake I'd managed to ice in the morning (having made the rest actually on my birthday!) to take up to Feshiebridge where ten of us were staying to celebrate the fact if was a big (60 times big) occasion.
