I'm living on a landmine, my body's ticking away

Most excellent. One of my colleagues - who's just been up in the Lakes, walking - has brought us some Grasmere gingerbread.

For those of you not familiar with Grasmere gingerbread, it is the Dwarf Bread of gingery comestibles. And it's flippin' lovely. I am now (a) full of gingerbread and (b) covered in crumbs.

Hmm. T'internet suggested that Yorkshire parkin has oatmeal in, but I don't put oats in mine when I make it. Are you going to say "ewww, oats" or are you going to claim that mine isn't parkin, just sticky gingerbread :)

Oh, mine definitely has oats in :) Looks like there is more than one type after all!

We may have to do some comparative baking some time.

Well, I think I'd certainly better try this oaty plan out! To the kitchen!
