A Town Hall 'crumb-down' has been ordered because thieving visitors keep
stealing the councillors' biscuits. Bosses at Canterbury City Council, Kent, UK,
are fighting back by telling staff to hide the tea trolley during meetings to
stop people purloining the biccies.
An unnamed council source said, 'People coming to sit in on the meetings see
the trolley and just help themselves. They think it is something that the
council lays on for free, but the biscuits are for the councillors not members
of the public.'
Footnote: Interesting how we always believe an
'Unnamed source', but always distrust the 'Official Spokesman'.
'Some biscuit bar manufacturer hit upon the simple notion of emptying out the leavings of carthorse nose bags, adding a few other things like unconsumed portions of chicken layer's mash, and the sweepings of
racing stables, packaging the mixture into little bars and selling them in health food shops.'
Thanks to Frank Muir, the late British comedian and broadcaster for this
biscuit joke
Funny Cake
Who are these people we ask?
Here, the customer required the word, 'congratulations' to be written.
You will observe that the cake maker has written it twice since the word
requested was a plural.
A splendidly funny example of a pirate cake.
