Yesterday in my office there was a conversation about the "my happiness" adverts which Cadbury have been running, in which various fluffy creatures urge their people to eat chocolate. It was agreed that they are really quite irritating adverts.

I did concede, though, that I'd quite like to be followed round by a badger urging me to eat cake.

Today on my desk there is a small soft toy badger. It belongs to my boss and usually resides on his desk. Round its neck is hung a piece of paper which says "EAT CAKE".

I think my colleagues are bored.

[Disclaimer: I have limited artistic skills, so it may be a very bad badger of cake.]

Either way, you should photograph that as well!

PS Shouldn't that be cake-badger?

I'm referring to the little furry dude on my desk as a cakebadger, at present. I don't think an important disctinction like that can rest on anything so perilous and fragile as a hyphen.

There is an option that something I make from flour and eggs could be a badgercake, but that is open to the shocking misinterpretation that I've actually sliced and diced a badger in with the ingredients.

I think I'm sticking with badger of cake as a term.

Very well, but at least have the decency to capitalise in the following manner:

Badger of Cake (BoC)

Optionally, the BoC should have special powers, e.g. BoC +2, dragon slayer.

I think that's a reasonable request; Badger of Cake it shall be.
