I mentioned my great idea of tea balls to a friend and they said, what like this...

Not quiet but close enough for me to rip up my application for Dragon's Den!

oh.

I think I've discovered the world's best biscuit


These are about the only reason anyone needs to go into Ikea. They are so good they should be illegal.

our staffroom is out of biscuits again

They are so more-ish one box wouldn't last 5 minutes in a staff room.

Is this a thing right now on Brti island or just the youths?

I think that comes from the great journalistic tradition of "making sh!t up".

I've been cursed to discover in the last couple of weeks that the lemon cookies/biscuits that the Girl Scouts are selling right now go lovely with the morning tea. I'll just eat one... or two... well, why not eight? What can it hurt?

And now Pista comes at me with these IKEA ginger motherfuckers?

Oh, my f**king waistline...

i seriously feel like an alien in this thread of biscuit munchers...

absolutely the last if ever thing i want to eat of all the food groups in the world. and tea...seriously what is this tea and a cookie* the name of a biscuit in other countries. tea if you are sick okay but as general go between beverage?

no not me. coffee black and a smoke and i'm good

Today I have been mostly eating

SHORTBREAD

i love shortbread. the proper stuff.

Good morning. For the record, I hate tea and biscuits but I do like buttered toast dipped in coffee, so there ya filthy animals.

Always thought that it was the biccie equivalent of Lynx. Bought exclusively by elderly aunts at Christmas. Kind of like Shloer. Mind you on occasion with a nice Oolong (leaves not teabags) or Lapsang (ditto) it hits the spot. No dunking of course.

... ... terrible, buttered toast has to be dipped in Bihun soup and nowhere else ! Beyond that it depends on the day whether I prefer tea or coffee, but mostly it's coffee, Lavazza and stuff of course, a large mug with milk and sugar. Time and again, a lovely cup of cacao with sweet rusk dipped into does the trick to me as well ... ...

If I were going to buy a packet of biscuits, and thinking back to when I've done just that, It would be milk chocolate Hobnobs.
"Nice" (the most ironic biscuit name ever) and Rich-Tea, can f**k right off.

Sorry man, I'm just more of a savoury type of person. Give me a steak bake or sausage roll any time

I was going to say 'weirdos' but remembered where we are
toast should be dipped in soup or egg! or have cheese and baked beans on. or marmalade.

If you're dipping toast into any kind of drink it ought to be hot chocolate.

That works for me. Also, toasted bagel dipped in coffee, hot chocolate is great. If you wanna get really degen, spread Nutella (other chocolate spreads are available) on the bagel or toast prior to dipping.

I reckon the real reason the Sisters split wasn't that didn't want to use their songs but that they dunked and he just wouldn't put up with it!

The very idea of dunking anything... soggy crumb bits in the bevvy? f**king heresy.
