The moon is moving away from earth at roughly 4cm a year. When you take into account the length of time to make 7 billion Jaffa cakes plus the many many years it would take to build a ladder big enough I’m inclined to agree with you Evan3020.
Stacked the sensible way 66.6bn Jaffa cakes would weigh 79,200 tonnes but since they would be between the moon and the earth that would complicate matters as the moons mass is only 1/80 of the earths so as you stacked them the weight would increase until you reached the legrange point ( the point between the earth and moon where they cancel each others gravitational pull) and then they would start to be attracted to the moon rather than the earth.
I am beginning to think it is impractical.
Agreed Franny.. you’d be a braver man than me..
Hotshot69, enough with the small number already..
" at least my wife likes me!"... lol...not to be sniffed at
Sounds like a pump and massive dump to me...
I went to Amsterdam last year and they gave me a salty lollipop... not quite a saline pool but hey ho, at least my wife likes me!
7 Billion Jaffa Cakes would cost £525,000,000
at Tesco for a standard 10 Cake box at 75p. You can get multipack boxes of course and this will be cheaper.
This is not meant to be investment advice.
However we can now get a picture of how many Jaffa Cakes we could get if EUA sells for 7 Billion. McVities could be the next EUA....
Thanks for suggesting they were 6 inches Bacefook, felt much better about myself until I read Hotshot69's post.
Since we're all such good pals with PATT maybe we could ask him if we could have a party in his saline pool if the company sells. Perfect for pirates being salty.
Thanks for all the research MrYfronts...
I reckon is bi half cake half biscuit!!
Why, I thank you sir!
Bacefook
Sir I salute you you are truly the pre eminent authority on Jaffa Cakes!
How anyone can call a jaffacake a biscuit is beyond me? Also while we are at it, its a CHIP BUTTY!
A jaffa cake has a diameter of 54mm... according to Google and wikipedia!! :) I await PATT to disagree.
I'm off to Tesco's, need this answered once and for all.
And that judge, what does he know, probably paid by the makers of Jaffa cakes to help keep the profit up with no vat.
6 inches then.
Cake it is...
I’m expecting Wolster to turn up at any minute and tell us all off..
MrYfronts, when was the last time you ate a Jaffa?
3 inches... Stop ramping the Jaffa cake please, it’ll only give people unrealistic expectations
It’s a cake Mr. Yfronts. There was a court case about it. HMRC said it was a biscuit and should attract VAT. The court judged it was a cake and therefore didn’t.
Hi Tilly, Pompey,
Yes agree totally with both your sentiments 100%,i just always try and look on the upside, like I know you both do as well over the last 12 months or so I've been invested here.. And it's easy with this share anyway as there is only going to be one outcome and that is a mega deal.
And I've put down for 7am rns tomorrow lol
Gla Colin. ( sorry for rambling had a few wines tonight)...
Jaffa cake has to be at least 75mm.
Well out to the moon.
But is it a cake ?
Evan, do you have any evidence to back up your theory?
Djm.
Not having a Jaffa cake to hand I made an assumption of a 50mm diameter, multiplied by 7 billion equals 350,000 km. This is very close to 356,000km which is about as close as the moon gets to earth therefore allowing for a reasonable margin of error.
In answer to the question of how many Jaffa cakes to crush a twunt from Gerrards cross I’d say there’s probably not enough Jaffa cakes in the whole universe to bury that massive ego... of course, I would highly recommend that this is the time if ever there was one to do your own research...
Hi Portsmouth1 ..is it Steve..can’t remember..anyway 5% is ok but not too bothered
with movement either way at the moment cause we’re here for the result and 5% will be a drop in the ocean come deal time..sincerely believe this will be deal of the year in aim.
Good look matey regards to all ...glass of red beckons..pompey
Bye the way Ian....good breakfast at you b&b ? Cheers now
You can't stack Jaffa cakes that way.
