On Friday, I popped in on Venson Automotive Solutions, where employee Steve Wall had organised an in-house 'bake-off' competition to raise money for Children in Need. As pictured below, I joined MD Samantha Roff and Sharon Evans (from the Lime Tree Cafe) to judge the finalists - which, yes, did involve extensive sampling!

Christina (far left) was victorious with an amazing sponge cake decorated with fruit, and the overall standard was amazing. Hats off to Samantha, Steve and everyone at the company for taking the time and effort to put in such a competitive - but equally civic-minded! - effort to raise money for charity.
