I've always found that a good stiff erection is paramount in a satisfactory completion of any edifice.
Amazon seem to always be hell-bent on continuing to alienate and annoy everyone else with their Business practices now? ...http://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/compan...
Someone is surely going to rise to the challenges that they keep on posing and imposing and try to take them down one of these days?!
sorry suzy, back to the boaby jokes! :)when your erection is complete it will be closely examined by a panel from the council. it may be tweaked if it overhangs your neighbours property! fnur!
You'll all be made to pay up to a £1,000 each if the Council finds you guilty and decides to enforce you with a Hosepipe ban, you know? ;o>

I'm glad that article points out that the original saying was "you can't eat your cake and have your cake", rather than "you can't have your cake and eat it", which doesn't make sense.

Oh he's in the dog-house now!"
Oh fur the love of doG (anagram).
I'm rather taken with the word used near the end of the article ... 'permashambles' ... or 'perma-shambles' as it also comes up elsewhere online. I've never heard of it before and wondered if it was another newly invented word as there does not appear to be any online Dictionary definitions of it? ;o>
I've heard of omnishambles before, so perhaps that's where it hails from.

Shambles upon shambles! The omnishambles is now a megashambles, a shambles in Europe, a shambles in the banks and of course let's not forget the great ongoing, rolling permashambles of the government.”

How far down should we scroll, Twoddle?

Anyway, by great coincidence, Stephen Poole in today’s Guardian says:
“The impossibility of having your cake and eating it is a modern reversal: the original, as a 1546 compendium of English proverbs has it, goes: “Wolde ye bothe eate your cake, and haue your cake?” Oddly, it has also sometimes meant a regulatory environment – “a body or ‘cake’ of laws and customs” (1872), of the kind that even Johnson would surely not gobble.”
