    Grate them on ice cream.

    Or a penguin, the biscuits, not the bird.

    I've always been a big fan of the mint Viscount myself

    I like the look of these, I’ve not seen them down here in the 21st century, are they a northern thing :lol:
    I’ll pick some up when I visit :thumbup:

    Consider me delighted at the biscuit fest this thread has turned into :thumbup:

    I'm partial to a Borders dark ginger myself.

    Had a mate round today to look my rusty rear end and he's going to chop it out and weld in a panel from donor I have. So @dodgy is off the hook and can continue enjoying various tea time treats!

    Thanks for convincing me to get it sorted properly and not just bodge it as usual.

    Took the bumper off today and rest of the rear panel is pretty solid apart from a small bit starting to show around the towing lug.

    Tunnocks Tea Cakes are another one I'm partial to, although they along with the Viscounts are a rare beast in this part of the world.

    Home bargains in the mighty Halifax had them, they're good, but pink panther wafers are better.
    If they were northern only obviously it would be vimto flavour, speaking of which try hot vimto, I'm a convert.

    They do Tunnocks wafers in dark chocolate too, but I've only recently seen them in Somerset.

    They do Caramac Munchies at the moment too.

    Are Tunnocks tea cakes considered a biscuit?

    There is only one answer to that question and it’s yes

    I'm going to say this and consequences be damned - Bourbon Cream biscuits are the work of Satan himself!!
    They are just vile things...sorry RJ but they just are.
