P got married in Mexico about 3 weeks ago. They are having a "do" over here on Friday night, to which I am invited (via the magic of Facebook.) WTF? Does no one write out proper invitations to weddings any more?? I suspect it was that he was so fecking disorganised, they didn't get written. (he's a GIANT and only got his suit sorted about a week before they went)
Anyhoo, I digress. Into work, Monday morning. P says Can you make me a cake. For Friday. You know, a wedding cake, like?
WTF?
Doesn't give me clues as to shape, size, style, colour, nada. Phones his missus, who only stipulates "Sponge, no jam" That's it. Then he says, I@d like a fruit cake too.
So I have made them this

So I'm back to my usual question - what do I charge? It cost about £35 to make I think. Is £50 ok? Would you pay it?
