I was sitting on top of the climbing frame, feeling peckish as usual, when I suddenly wondered why you never see Chorley cakes any more. (For soft southerners, a Chorley cake is like a giant eccles cake.) Or Dundee biscuits. Mmm- chocolately. And, for that matter, whatever happened to Aztec bars?
I think we, the public, have a Right to Know.

Hmm "chocolately" eh? Rogue apostrophes are bad enough, but this looks like renegade adverb to me.
Help! There's a psychoweasel in the garden!
And if adverbs can go renegade, Lord 'elp us when gerunds go on the loose.
I think you'll find that Chorley cakes are still available in the north. Even stocked by Sainsbury's. There's probably an inverse square relationship between distance from Chorley and the probability of finding them. You must live too far away from God's country. Surely not in the south?
Of course I don't live Down South. Duckshire is in the northwest, although for some reason the Ordnance Survey keep forgetting to put it on their maps. But I must doublecheck next time I go in Sainsbury's - maybe they don't put them near the eccles cakes.
I think you'll find it's eccles with a capital E.
Flippin' 'eck, I'm only a pigeon. It's really difficult to hold down the shift key with my beak at the same time I'm using my pigeon paws on the keyboard.
It's ok Fat Tony. Some times I don't even start sentances with capital letters! Shock horror!!!
