A Very British Problem.

Earlier, I took a stroll down to the village shop where I purchased a pack of McVitie's Digestives. However, now I really fancy a Hobnob.

Go back to the shop and tell them that god gave you the wrong message

I didn't get to be this old and fat by discriminating against biscuits

Or cakes for that matter. Java, bourbon, garibaldi all are welcome 🙂

Squashed fly sandwiches was what we used to call them 🙂

Thanks for posting Jnei, it gives me an excuse to confess my love of both Belgian chox and Maltesers. Today I bought some Maltesers.

This whole discussion is making my mouth water. At least you have them at hand at the village shop. I’m in Florida with limited access to my comfort food from home. I did find some hobnobs the other day. Was a very happy girl ?
Hobnobs always remind me of the Peter Kay skit. LMAO.

With this and the demand for the apple-scented floor wipes I mentioned a few weeks back, I seriously considering renting a shipping container and exporting some supplies over the Atlantic!

@Jnei Apple scented floor wipes ? say what now?
Never heard of them. Yes, on the container idea, you’d make a killing over here.

@Hazydays I think they might only do them in Tesco. One single wipe will do a whole floor and the room smells of fresh apples for a week afterwards. I'm quite disturbed by how happy that makes me, because it proves I'm turning into my mother.

I vote for mixed ability every time. In this case a mixed ability to fully appreciate a mixture of biscuits at any one time. Also I have had to appreciate complete absence of biscuits since I have diabetes. Abstinence has its { religious and non religious} uses.

The problem is very real. Can’t beat a Hobnob..however when you get home from the shop you’ll probably want a Jaffa 😉

Hazydays Level 7 Mar 31, 2018

I will never want a Jaffa - the most horrible of all biscuits/cakes! (except those pink wafer things; those are even worse.)

@Aethelrick So glad someone out there sees sense!

@Aethelrick Apart from the Bourbons, you are a wise man 🙂

I've given this some thought, it is a dilemma and a very British one, but I've reached a conclusion

You'll have to f---ing go without until tomorrow...unless your village shop is open at nearly 1.00am?

You're no help at all! 🙂

@Jnei lmao
