2. Select at least the first 40
3. Bold the ones you like
4. Strike out the ones you hate

This is a trick question though, isn't it? If I keep choosing cake I'm actually putting my health at risk and significantly increasing the chances of my dying sooner. So really it's not a choice between cake or death but death or cake then death. Oh you English are so cunning, no wonder you ruled a quarter of the globe.

I refuse to believe that you do not recognise Cruel Summer - Bananarama

I have no control over what you believe!

I'd probably recognise it if I heard it...

(P.S. Are likely to be over nan's this PM? We will have Egypt photos!)
