I was looking through the posts and came across your offer of cake. Now this creates for me a major problem: I am overweight. I like cake. I an resist almost anything except temptation. In the kitchen there is some cake.

Oh well, I'm off to the kitchen.

So cake is medicine?

Prescribed and dispensed now due to be consumed?

As Will Shakespeare should have had King Henry V say:

From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered-
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that eats cake with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That ate cake with us upon Saint Martin's day.

Dr Vic and I prescribe cake all the time and it's known to aid corneal epithelial healing...honest!

Yes Micheal I want cake and i want it NOW! Give me cake, give me cake!!

Ahh, Women's Guild cakes, church jumble cakes [mmm, that's enough to make me go to church, there you go Andrew, offer cake instead of that rice paper thingy].

*slumps over keyboard drooling, thinking of cake*

Vic can make cake, lemon cake with icing and butter cream, choccie cake, banana cake. Oh that's it, I want to marry a cake chef problem solved.

We don't use the wafer in our part of christendom .. we use ordinary bread.

What was it Jo Brand said about some sort of cake or other? "It is the cake with the shape that women prefer ... cake shaped".

Well, on the basis that confession is good for the soul, let me say that the house is full of the smell of fruit soaking in brandy. My wife is getting ready to bake the Christmas Cake.

Oh joy!
