I'm sure that most of you across the world have read of the recent rioting in the UK. It's been a few worrying weeks and many people have been musing over the possible causes of the terrible events; bad parenting, a weak penal system, economic crisis, political incompetence, poor education and so on. It is, of course, the result of many combining factors. It's a tragic situation and in the past, amongst my usual silly posts, I've written more serious articles on how the changes in society, particularly with respect to education during the Labour government, have caused me great concern.

I have, however, recently discovered another reason for the riots; one of my ladies from the Book Club sent me a truly shocking picture depicting a heinous crime. Apparently, the offending picture was taken on the opening night of the riots at a social event in Tottenham; I was gob smacked at the overt irresponsibility demonstrated in the picture - so much so, that bile gathered in my throat, my knees buckled and my hair stood on end. I just couldn't believe the sickening audacity of the crime.

You must brace yourself, Readers, for something truly shocking...

Now come on Readers, you have to admit it - if you were the mother-in law of the bride who chose this cake wouldn't you cause a riot?

Now where did I put my sunglasses....
