    A bit like that, in fact. Arms aloft, takes the page 40 stage! The crowd goes wild...

    Now where are those podium girls?

    Quick somebody shove a couple of those big eccles cakes down DesWeller's throat to slow him up before the end of this stage. If it is too much for him he can throw up all over himself and create his own yellow jersey

    Reminds me when I were a lad and Fanny Craddock was making doughnuts on telly-at the end of the show her hubby Johnny turned to camera and said
    `` I hope all your doughnuts turn out like Fanny`s``

    I see what you're saying, but it is an American institution (Utah, actually).

    It's a three-lap race around a 7 mile course. Between each lap you stuff as many Kripsy Kremes down your gullet as you dare. For each donut (sic) you take on board, 3 minutes are knocked off your time.

    I think we should have a Tour de Gateaux Lardy. As Big Mig seems to already have competed in the Tour d'Eccles.

    I remember this story as it being Bill Tennant. A quick google reveals that it could have been Frank Bough, David Coleman, or a send-up by Benny Hill.

    mmm tasty.....apart from the lard

    The main ingredients are freshly rendered lard, flour, sugar, spices, currants and raisins.[1] Lardy cake can be eaten at any time of day as a snack, but is most commonly consumed in the afternoon with tea or coffee. Lardy cakes are very rich and sweet and eaten traditionally for special occasions, high days and holidays and harvest festivals......and bike rides

    It's funny you mention Paul McCartney I heard he is already peed off with his new Wife. Apparently she spends twice as much on shoes as his last Wife.

    I'm suffering from excruciating pain as part of the withdrawal symptoms caused by not having suitably sickly cake or suitably sticky buns recently. Lardy cake or barm cake would go down a treat right now but tomorrow I will have to persuade SWMBO that we have to sample the patisserie just along the road from our hotel.

    I had a piece of 'fruit' cake as part of the tea service on a long distance bus today. The picture on the packet clearly showed a slice of cake with 17 big bits of fruit. What did I find when I opened the pack? 30grams (allegedly) of cake with 7 bits of microscopic current. :(

    You guys pigging out on giant eccles cakes and Lardy's and Barm cakes do not know you're born....

    Fortunately for me there is the aforementioned patisserie and then on Friday I have an appointment at the dentist. You are probably wondering why a trip to the dentist could be described as fortunate.
    No? Well I'll tell you anyway!
    Inside the distance from my dentist that one can squirt a gob full of pink mouthwash there are more good eateries than you can shake a stick at. If he gives me an injection to numb my mouth I will probably dribble cake and coffee all over myself but I can live with that. :wink:
