I found this in the dark recesses of my mind, but somebody else will have
to process it for me:

We all know & love the song from which this group takes its name, but I've
found a possible reference to it on TSW, viz:

"Mmmm, Yes,
Then I'd taken the kiss of seedcake back from his mouth"
                                         --Kate, "The Sensual World"

Has anybody mentioned that there is a type of seedcake, "Jaffa Cake"...and
that I once lost a spelling bee by starting "gymnasium" with a "j" instead
of a "g"...and that therefore KaTe could've been referring to my
experience albeit in a very roundabout way...

You see the hazards when I process information. I think it's pretty
interesting, even without the part about me & the spelling bee. Anybody
else picked up on this?

Dee a dum dum doo...
