Method
Place the mixed fruit, cherries, mixed peel, orange rind, lemon rind and brandy or rum in a large bowl and mix well. Cover and leave overnight.
Cream butter and sugar until it is light and fluffy, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, and then add the bananas and vanilla essence. Stir in the fruit mixture, mix well and add the flour. Mix until well combined.
Place in a deep 25cm cake tin, which had been lined with two layers of brown paper and one layer of grease proof paper. Bake at 150°C for approximately 3 and 1/2 hrs, or until a skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
