Views, my own.
Incidentally, one of my top 5 favourite movies.
If you haven't already, go watch "Blood for Dracula" & "Flesh for Frankenstein." They're both delightfully campy and irreverent.

In Ireland, there are 122 landlords with 101+ tenancies. A further 130 with 50-101 tenancies. There is quite literally no need for anyone to own that much property.

Be warned, there's very little about cake but it does mention the (probable) precursor to kolyva (κόλλυβα), which can be quite delicious in my experience: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koliva

Naturally, this brought me down a rabbit hole of funereal cakes and produced this gem: www.gutenberg.org/files/57829/...

'No country, in the past or in the present, has ever succeeded in extirpating abortion by the severest legal penalties: what has been done is to create a criminal occupation, and a largely criminal class; to endow blackmail; and to ruin the health and sanity of many women'. Stella Browne in 1917
