Poxy Meta Alarm failed.

Oh la Di da eating your cake with a knife and fork

It's the only way to eat them unless you want to get covered in custard and icing. Others have suggested various alternatives, but I find it the least messy! A very fine confection, made locally. And Ian's sausage and bacon baguette is jolly good too.

I think it's just for show, the cake looks like it's been teefed

Not teefed, knifed and forked. Honest.

Highly recommended if you are down our way in West Wales, and the roads and scenery are fabulous. https://m.facebook.com/owlsnestLlandovery/

May I suggest biscuits and cakes are one bite items - no crumbs, no mess, you're welcome

Why on earth were they retrofitted in the UK? Wasn't the factory immobiliser enough? Was it an insurance thing? I think the Meta M357T and V2 were Thatcham approved so maybe the Ducati importer had to do it. The worse thing is that the backup battery, that supposedly had a life of 5 to 7 years, was completely potted in resin and not replaceable. Talk about built in obsolescence!

I agree. I have/had bikes with factory designed & fitted immobilisers and the insurance co wasn’t in the slightest bit interested ‘but does it have an alarm sir?’, despite the fact it ain’t starting or going anywhere or resaleable unless you have the key. Surely insurance cos know no-one pays the slightest bit of attention to an alarm going off.

On the custard slice issue, yes, knife and fork, impossible to eat with any semblance of decorum and manners otherwise

So by that definition, a custard slice is not a biscuit or cake? Definitely too large to be a one-bite item! I propose that it is a dessert. Which means that you could add further custard or cream!

Forensic dentistry would reveal that it was not a bite, but a blunt knife trauma inflicted on said slice.

Who is paying the forensic dentist?
"Who pays" determines what the findings will be, we know this for a fact.
