actually always thought there was something wrong with the "have your cake and eat it" saying - for a long time thought the point of it was that the world was so ironically cruel, that if you wanted cake, then when you finally mangaed to actually 'have it' (in your possesion), some evil twist of fate would always prevent you from eating it! i.e. you can try to get the cake - but it will be useless by then!
And what would be the point of having cake if you couldn't eat the damn thing!
Eventually realised meant 'keep your cake and eat it' - makes more sense that way!
