Up the bum - no babies!!!
That looks delicious! 
The one and only time I made steak and kidney pudding, there was far too much pastry - as with your recipe - but unlike you I wasn't sensible and didn't discard the excess and the result - with a super thick pastry was really claggy and quite revolting..
Yours looks to be the perfect thickness (and your filling stayed in place when you cut it too)!
By the way, the Geo Watkins brand of mushroom ketchup is available in (large stores at least) Sainsburys and Tescos etc - in the same section as Worcester sauce etc. - and is defo worth getting.
Fantastic packaging too!

Mushroom ketchup is nang. I must get some again.
I've kind of lost track of this thread. It's suddenly struck me that I can't remember someone mentioning meatballs (with spaghetti) on here - one of my fave dishes.
And - perhaps as nod to the American way - I'm a bit partial to a decent meatloaf as well.
The more I think of Beef Wellington, the more I dislike it. I thought the naffness of its presentation and unnecessarily showy fussiness had been killed off in the 1970s, but like pineapples & cheese on sticks and prawn cocktail it seems to be having a kitsch revival. Just to prove the point M&S are starting to sell their own version of the Beef Wellington, perfect for that affected dinner party. It's beef, but not as well cooked as if you didn't have pastry, mixed with foie gras that doesn't absorb into the beef, covered in pastry for some unknown uncomplimentary reason. Down with this sort of thing...
