Good morning folks.

Morning WD.

Did you notice how, out of respect for Wales, I didn't use "the size of Wales" as a way of measuring Yorkshire yesterday? The standard scales are a gnat's thingamejig, a tennis court, Wales, and, sometimes, Texas. For example, the surface area of human lungs are about the size of a tennis court. Or, the world loses an area of rainforest the size of Wales every year. And so on. So when we were discussing why it takes 3 days to ride across Yorkshire but only one day to ride from York to London it would only have been natural to judge both distances in terms of Wales. I'll take your gratitude for not invoking such a comparison in the form of a rich fruitcake, please, with thick home-made marzipan and some Royal icing. Ta.

Did you know that if your lungs were spread out over the average size tennis court, you'd be dead.

Good Morning

Morning??

I am simply trying to be good and not eat rubbish. And i can hear you say, " that's ok, you don't have to eat it, just send it to me."

It'd "get lost" on it's way in the post though!!

Sorry, my bull**** filter has made that image very fuzzy. I can't quite make it out. Does it say People's Republic of North Lincolnshire? Or is it People's Republic of East Lancashire?

Deary deary me. No, WD, the cake isn't for you, it's for me. I'm skinny as a rake, and there is no better cake than a mature rich fruit cake. As you owe me a cake I think you'd better start working out the logistics of getting it to me. Oh, and the marzipan should be at least 15mm thick all over (down the sides too), and held on with apricot jam.

Completely empty post, Classic. Or it could be my filter, I guess.

Impudent is the word you were clutching for. Impudent........

May be the lack of marzipan.

Have you noticed how many sailors and explorers Yorkshire has produced? "Must be somewhere better than here" is their motivation.
