Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Offer the packet first? No, always take a couple for yourself first.

I must definitely qualify I seem to have slept through the offering of biscuits. Can I have some ginger nuts (stop sniggering at the back) to dunk in my cuppa please.

(In my defence I have just got up from a night shift)

Just had some dunked gingers in my tea.

Time to get ready for work now though.

Grandparents always had orange clubs, penguins and occasional mint viscount.

United biscuits! I'm guessing they were cheaper, as that's what we would occasionally get at my Nanna's house instead of Clubs. We also had Viscounts in their mint green wrappers - but only at church teas!

United's had that sort of honeycomb, crispy layer in. And the treat was to find one that was more chocolate than biscuit.

Orange and chocolate should never be put together 🤢
