    I assume your players don't have their name on the back of the shirt because it would have cost you a fortune in Shirts and letters this season.

    They have to recycle the letters from shirts of players who have left. That's why it's Mendez-Laing, Buzsaky and Williamson out, Keene and Smith in.

    Just kidding, more seriously I only just saw that you are leaving Welly in a few weeks. That is yet another big loss.

    A chelsea supporting mate of mine got a blue marker, block out the "Drog" part of the name on his shirt, and leaving behind the "Ba" part- Chelsea's new striker! <ok>

    That could lead us to snap up the singer Will.i.am - I can just see him tearing down the left flank, putting over inviting crosses for James Keene to hammer in <laugh>

    Why don't you simply get the contracts of any new signings to stipulate that they must change their names by deed poll to that on an available shirt?
    No need to even touch the letters!

    That brings us back to that all important question:

    Jafercake.

    Is it a cake or a biscuit?

    A clue to the correct and legal answer (albeit poorly written) may well be in the question :)

    This was the subject of a battle between the manufacturers of said Jaffa cakes and the HMRC, who said that Jaffa cakes are biscuits, and thus liable to higher taxation. I believe that the court decided that it all depended what happened if you left the comestible in question out of it's packet. Cakes get harder, biscuits get softer, so a Jaffa cake is a cake.
    I have tried this experiment at home but the Jaffa cakes always seem to disappear when my kids get home from school, so I am afraid that I cannot confirm the courts assumptions were correct.:)

    That would certainly put Will.I.Am in the "Hall of Fame" (His recent song with The Script. I'll get my coat ..... <laugh>

    Anyway, what does everyone make of Will.I.Am's strange new song with Britney Spears?

    [video=youtube;kYtGl1dX5qI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYtGl1dX5qI[/video]

    They both sound like they are really trying to sound British, even though they're both Amercian! ..

    Some other Will.I.Am Classics:

    [video=youtube;9I9Ar6upx34]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9I9Ar6upx34[/video]

    And now for Will.I.Am to ruin a song that many of you older people will remember was sung by an old British singer:
