As Martin says, this is the key. In my experience it doesn't work in

What doesn't work?

Oh. Too bad your post didn't say so.

Yorkshire Pudding.

Why didn't you say so in the first place?

I did, but it was over snipped.

You didn't say so in the post I responded to. Or did you mean YOU
oversnipped?

I apologize. I seem to be especially snarky on this subject
today. In some other groups I read there are a bunch of
apparently newbie posters who never quote any of what they are
responding to. They seem to think they're exchanging email with
someone. Drives me nuts.

UK, Netherlands and Spain going by the lorries. 6000 miles is
probably a little excessive.

It depends on the season. Those 'fresh' tomatoes you see on sale
in winter will have come from outside Europe, the Canary Islands
are probably the closest supplier and there is plenty of
South Africa fruit on sale in my local Tesco.

Is it 6000 miles to Africa? It takes me four hours to get to the
Canaries.

Canaries succeeds

That's because they don't have any teeth?

Works in our fan-assisted fine. It's probably the cook that's the variable!

I apologise - it was I who over-snipped, albeit inadvertently

Go stand in the corner until we all agree you can come out!

Well, I used to make great YPs until we got a fan-assisted, and never
since! But maybe something else changed at the same time.

It's a Miele Classic, about seven years old now.

It's a bit unusual for anything from Miele not to be perfect.

As I recall it was an ex-showroom unit so it may be a bit rough round
the edges. I had to change the door-seal a few years ago frex.
