Half Baked Resignation?
A man resigned from his job by piping a resignation letter onto a cake. As resignations go this was quite a sweet way to do it, and we are sure the management appreciated the gesture. We keep hoping that our interns will bake us a cake, but they don’t. A picture of the resignation cake quickly went viral on Twitter, and we have embedded one of the many tweets on the topic below, so you can witness this culinary wonder for yourselves. We don’t know whether he quit to enter the Great British Bskeeoff, but we would like to imagine so.
This resignation was a piece of cake. #Hilarious twitter.com/RKaedB/status/…

You Live Where Now?
Considering that the town in question is called Wetheringsett-cum-Brockford (no relation to Badger) we were surprised that the council was concerned that people might have difficulty pronouncing a new street name, until we learnt that the new street name was “Hakluyt”. We don’t really know how it’s pronounced either, but to quash concerns we would like to suggest that emergency services etc refer to it as “The one named after the 16th Century traveller that no-one can pronounce”. Unless there is another street in the area named after a 16th Century traveller that no-one could pronounce, this should work out fine. If there is, then they could always add “Beginning with H” – depending on how long they had to respond to the emergency.

Glow in the Dark Sheep!
Very exciting, until they take over the world and we are ruled by phosphorescent sheep. Although they may be better with the budget, education, employment, agriculture… actually, if they stand for government vote phosphorescent sheep… Scientists in Uruguay have genetically modified sheep that glow! It may save money on street lighting in rural areas. Although according to a news report we watched they only glow when exposed to ultra violet light, so, er, potential spies? Anyway…
