thesaurus.com. Seems obvious, but I love it.
A great and very useful link Porky, I can now try to stop saying cheers mate to everyone.
I would bake you a cake but pie is better, cheers mate...Bugrit!
You can try Weird Words: A Lovecraftian Lexicon. ;)
@ Loquacious - Good call, and not obvious enough, obviously!
@ Bix - You're very welcome. I get the feeling we all love pie in these parts.
@ Trey - Excellent suggestions. Desiderate indeed!
I don't have any cleaver phrases or links, but I am happy to see the great battle of Cake VS. Pie, continues.
Not to worry - you're the cherry on top.
That battle has seen a great many plates consumed and fillings spilled...
