Thanks Riot. Yes, two limes for the zest and six for the juice. So six in total? Seems a bit over the top.

Limes are only small.

I don't know - her flan or shortbread or whatever it was that she did for the WI competition was pretty crappy. I've never seen Weyland do anything that was crappy.

"We’re making a brand new craft series and we’re looking for people who desperately want a handmade makeover in their home to take part." That really puts me in my place. You're a cruel woman, Riot.

I make really shit cakes. Surprising when you think of how much I know about the genre.... BB, I think you may be using the wrong ingredients.

Yes, Aubs is right, limes give a very small amount of juice, so I would imagine six limes would be about right.
I shall be taking my two limes down to Salcombe at the end of the week (our annual pilgrimage to South Devon) in the hopes that my daughter or son-in-law might weave some magic with them (i.e. a thai curry or something) and I shall save trying out the key lime pie for later.

But Trubbs: Paul Hollywood. I'm getting interested. The fact that he bakes cakes has me half in love with him. He's quite strict though.

If those limes aren't enough for anything else Everso, there's always gin.

Good advice, Aubs.
Remind me to take my bottle of gin down to Salcombe.
