There’s a veritable Smorgasbord of cake in the office today, presumably inspired by the parsnip cake I made last week. I approached said cakefest earlier and said ‘blimey, it’s Cakesville, Arizona round ‘ere’.
Now, where have I got this phrase from. I’m sure there used to be something on the telly years ago when anything in abundance could be described as Anythingville, Arizona etc.
Can anyone shed any light or am I imagining it all.
Tony Webster from The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin.
Great…
Super…
I didn’t get where I am today without knowing that.
Bit of a cock-up on the catering front
Who’d have thought a reggie Perrin thread would turn into a reminder of the new Sparks album so quickly!
I remember Andy Partridge moaning about all the poxy places that XTC had to play in the States including “Bonefuck, Arizona”
Twinned with Bumfuck, Texas
Odd…my first thought was Citizen Smith. Or am I thinking of something else?
When I have too much cake I’m Tooting all the next day, Shirley.
