Biccy heaven.

What would I give for a packet of the above right now? The smell of the baking biscuits wafting through the night air from the Huntley and Palmers factory is something I will never forget.Biscuits are such an important part of British life...is there anything that can't be resolved or contemplated over a cup of tea (coffee) and a nice (no pun intended) biscuit?

My ex mother in law used to work for them,Mere Cottage station road Acton Bridge,Wright Manley 01829 731300,I must be getting old in Morrison's in West Kirkby just before and waiting in line to pay and this old biddy jumped in front of me,so I told her off and some other woman said it's not the end of the world,red in my eyes now,so I just said when the elders of this country behave like foreigners then it is the end of the world ,sounded good at the time.

Thud my olafactory membrane is longing for a proximity to Wilson Road. And how nice, and how comforting is a biscuit called Milk and Honey? I can see La Serenissima tucking into a packet, right now in my minds eye :)

Our suoermarket has recently started to stock McVitiies chocolate digestives, so we shipped a pack in....then gave them to the children. Salty, sweet, and tasteless - reckon the recpe was changed, what a downer!
