No I won’t eat the biscuit- I bought it for Dennis. It’s a Bonio Marrowbone Treat.
You can eat it if you like, but wait until the vicar’s wife and her sister aren’t looking. I think they think we’re common :(

Dunno what Malted Milk had on, but I would hazzard a guess at cows or some such country scene…?

The malted milk is a type of biscuit, first produced by Elkes Biscuits (now owned by Fox’s) in 1924.
They are named after their malt flavouring and milk content, although they are also referred to as “Cow Biscuits” after the distinctive cow picture imprinted on the back. There are three main variations of the design which varies from company to company. These are:
Two milk churns and a cow
A cow and a gate
A cow and a smaller cow

Who’s stalking me, then?

Good live show. Loads of inflatables and confetti cannons. They’re songs can be a bit strange (there’s 1 about a girl who fights with pink robots), and the frontman wears fake blood on his head a lot.

Good. I did say I thought the cream with pink and blue spots was more classy! :)
@ Mr Bomb - You survived then? So what went wrong? How come you ended up having to do all that work?
@Chr1s - Hello, we haven’t seen you in here for a while. Is that because you saw your name on the washing up rota? :mad:

Now then Marja - about this car of yours. Do you think you could run me down to the podiatrist? I’ve got a fungal infection that’s rotting my toes and it stinks to high heaven :)

the voice control thingy is great. I push the button, the car says in a posh english voice: please say the command after the beep, I say: 22 degrees, and the temprature goes up to 22 degrees. I’m not quite sure what other commands I can give it, will try this evening
