Does it actually say "Blackburry" on the front of it ?



Did you buy it on Briggate from one of those people who just put a big bag on the floor and start selling s[ihi[/it there and then and then then pack everything away and disappear in a puff of dust within ten nanoseconds of spotting a policeman, someone from the council, or anyone in a hi-viz vest that doesn't look like a builder ?



If so I think you're ok because "Blackburry" don't make mobile phones, they just make s[ihi[/it.

Has anyone rung you on it yet ?



Can you get a signal on it yet ?



Its probably not a phone, can you flick the top off and Tic-Tacs come out ?

I witnessed it been bought from one of those posh shops in one of those indoor market things that we have in Leeds. I don’t go in them very often. They make me feel poor!

Shake the Blackburry for a bit and see if tic-tacs come out.



I'm still not convinced.



Have you got a signal on it yet ?

Dear Mr Field .

As it is fairly obvious that it I that is guilty of being the 'one of your own' , and will be walking a fooking long way one week next month it raises a question or several .

What cake is best to eat when you are walking ?

Would you donate to the cause if I were to walk the whole way wearing a birthday cake hat ( it is musical , and has flashing lights in the candles)

Is there a good cake to plaster inside your socks to prevent blisters ?



Am I right in my head ?

Pound Cake, if you're pounding the streets.

ooops . Just realised that I may have inadvertantly just re-opened the Kendal mint cake debate .

Personally I would go for a good heavy fruit cake, one with lots of cherries in, but here's the problem, you don't want to be carrying all that weight in your stomach after eating half a Dundee cake on a five minute break and yet a Victoria sponge just isn't going to hit the spot and give you that slow energy release that the fruit cake will.



It may be desirable to eat the Dundee cake and get someone to carry you for the next hour or so, that would probably work.

bang on. its not actually a cake but its classic cake for walking. otherwise has to be fruitcake

Dear Mr Field I typed CCC into google and instead of the cricket that i was looking for i found www.clandestinecakeclub.co.uk There is a Pudsey & West Leeds branch . Would it be acceptable for my friend (a BDL) to become a member of such a club ? I have spoken to a member of said club , and they say they will teach my friend to bake yummy cakes if he was really interested in joining . First lesson would be a creamy Victoria Sandwich . Is that a sandwich or a cake ?

I have heard of this mythical association, however I have also been assured by the relevant licensing authorities that it remains just that - a myth, the clue apparently being in the name, "clandestine".



It does however underline a far more important issue, the fact that we should be speaking of a cake club being "clandestine", the mere fact that cake-lovers should feel that they need to shroud their meetings under a cloak of secrecy is a disgrace in this modern age.



Cake lovers should unite and throw off this deep cloud of disgrace that has enveloped us in the years since aerobic exercise was made popular by thin scrawny cadavers who die in their thousands whilst running or cycling on stationary machines in gymnasiums - lettuce and a boiled egg does not make a meal, throw the lettuce back into the garden and use the egg to whisk up a cake mix, there is nothing more healthy than a cake made from natural products like wheat, eggs and milk and a dash of natural sugar, and chocolate, which is of course also a natural product, it being grown on trees and all.



Cake lovers of the world unite - ban salad, eliminate ridiculous exercise routines, laugh, nay scoff, in the face of those whippet like "personal fitness instructors" with a "Why the F*** would I want to look like you" - just eat cake, thats all.

You need to set up a charity or help group.
