Plastic king not available
Royal children are stripped of their aristocratic titles and Epiphany cakes are stripped of their plastic figurines – the only solution is to flee to a safe coin.
And again Epiphany: Exactly one year ago we examined the pitiful condition of the monarchs of this world. Has it increased since then? Well, the Queen of England is dead: her successor Charles is grappling with failed children, unreliable pens and a crown that doesn’t fit on her head. Danish Queen Margrethe has had enough of her offspring and now she is stripping some of their peerages. Switzerland mourns the resignation of tennis king Roger Federer and just before the end of the year, Pele, the Brazilian king of football, also passed away.
Bad news, right? The sweet Epiphany cake from the wholesaler is just the thing. But – you eat piece after piece and nowhere a king! unheard of. How could that happen? Delivery problems with plastic? So, dear bakers, stick to the Bible and get little gold figures. When we bite, we will know if they are real.
