Well, whoops.

I can't believe that Caramac are being discontinued. I'm hunting down all the bars i can before they disappear forever. Caramilk just isn't the same.

And neither are the Caramilk buttons

Glad it wasn’t cardiac

Anyone else old enough that Mum used to buy a big box of broken biscuits?

My mum used to buy bags of random broken biscuits covered in chocolate from the market. We tried to guess from the shape what sort of biscuit it would be.

Very glad to hear it wasn't a cardiac issue.

I didn't know caramac was being discontinued.Its such a shame.

Thinking of you Lorcan, hope you feel better soon, and the goblins are kind to you!

As to biscuit suggestions, I have introduced the kids to pink wafers recently,
I love party rings!

 

[fluffysal]

I saw a recipe for a blonde chocolate (caramac/caramilk) cheesecake, dark chocolate hobnobs would be a good base.....

 

[poggle]

Sorry I'm late to this party, glad it was just (?) the neuralgia. As others have said, how could you know if you've not had it before - and if it might be cardiac it's definitely worth getting checked out!

@fluffysal You can still get big boxes of broken biscuits through Milk & More - I was that mum until I moved out of their delivery areas!

 

[fluffysal]

I have been that mum too. Places like home bargains sell them too, they seem to be making a comeback. I don't remember them having rich tea in .......Good news for @Lorcan

 

[Bill & Ted]

Sorry for your awful scare, neuralgia is bad enough, eat more biscuits!

 

[Lorcan]

eat more biscuits!

The best life advice!

 

[Pound Shilling & Pig]

It makes me smile that what could have been a worrying thread about health, is instead a biscuit chat thread

 

[Lorcan]

I have always been very bad at keeping on topic, even on my own threads. I mean, look what happened with the Quitting Smoking thread!

 

[fluffysal]

That's the joy of this forum in my opinion

 

[PiggyintheMiddle]

I know that feeling, I had a(nother) blood test this morning, I'm done for a few days, what happened to having a life?

Oh dear. I can't stand blood tests

They don't bother me. Which is good with the amount I've had recently

I’m having a routine one in about 10 minutes, must dash

Probably helps if you have many

 

[fluffysal]

Shame they don't give you a biscuit afterwards

 

[poggle]

That just means you'll have to go out and buy a whole packet for your post-blood test biscuit... and you can't waste the rest. Such a shame.

They do (or at least did) when you donate blood. I would love to donate but have been unable to for the last 20+ years due to the medication I'm on.

 

[fluffysal]

They progressed to chocolate bars as well. I also am now unable to donate

Chocolate bars and biscuits?!? Well that's a reason to donate if you can.

Hope it went well

Yes, just a blood pressure/cholesterol check up, thanks
