jennyh Apr 2020 6:04pm, 27 Apr 2020 4,312 posts	0 jennyh Hmm, maybe they’re not rationed here - I’ve just assumed they were as I’ve never seen anyone take more than one, and the most recent time when the biscuits and drinks were being bought over to people to try to maintain social distancing, they were only being given one.

Fitz Apr 2020 7:15pm, 27 Apr 2020 2,202 posts	0 Fitz I usually help my self to two. I have one while I'm sitting there trying not to be socially awkward, then "one for the road." I do ask / tell them, nobody has ever objected! Love the motto, Peregrinator!
HappyG(rrr) Apr 2020 8:05pm, 27 Apr 2020 34,713 posts	0 HappyG(rrr) Err, what is this rationing / quota of which you speak?! My record is probably 5 or 6, 4 choc e.g. kit kat, 2 tunnocks tea cake, digestive and a couple of savour e.g. tuc sandwich x 2! I sometimes have my dinner there basically. You've got to keep your strength up. A pint is very nearly an armful, you know?! G
LindsD Apr 2020 8:11pm, 27 Apr 2020 35,708 posts	0 LindsD I usually have one savoury and two sweet. One premium biscuit like Club, and a packet of bourbons or custard creams

Fragile Do Not Bend Apr 2020 10:12pm, 27 Apr 2020 5,816 posts	0 Fragile Do Not Bend I always felt guilty if I took more than one snack. Occasionally I have two (one savoury and one sweet) but only if I think nobody saw 😅
