Another TRA making violent threats

I wonder if this person will be subjected to the same treatment as Caroline Farrow? Let's wait and see!

BernardBlacksMolluscs · 11/06/2023 15:13

possibly something we could use to build a bridge with tras? They shout 'twaw' we retort, 'Don't you think Wagon Wheels have shrunk?'.

this is genius and could be deployed in any situation where British people are pitted against each other. Brexiteers vs remoaners for example

Oh Eresh

and I thought we had something…

I used to love Club biscuits because the chocolate was so thick. Ditto Mars bars.

I read recently that Wagon wheels were reduced in size by 12%, a few years ago.

My device wouldn't let me on it. It's not a secure connection 😕

If it hasn't been updated in 15 years, that would explain it. Ah, memories. I used to skive reading that website.

Me too! Might even have the book somewhere.

I make these Jaffa Cakes -

To my immense regret, I do not currently have custard powder in the house!

One of my siblings is a chef - who made the most delicious hand made wagon wheels. They were amazing!

Actually, the Tim Tams were fine, they just reminded me of Penguins. I can't remember the last time I had a Penguin - we don't keep much sweet stuff, as our daughter is an adept sugar hound.

Wagon wheels still exist?!

Yeah but you need a magnifying glass to spot them.

Waitwhat23 · 11/06/2023 11:04

I think it hasn't been updated since 2008 ish -

I've not looked it for years <nostalgic tear> twas the mention of Wagon Wheels that reminded me of it.

I wonder if it's still being updated....?

There was a website 'a nice cup of tea and a sit down', that asserted that every generation thinks Wagon Wheels have got smaller*. They posited that if that were true by now Wagon Wheels would so small they'd have to be deployed by aerosol. You'd spray them on your hands and lick them off. That said, they have got smaller, I believe. They do taste off, and the chocolate isn't very nice, but I'd eat one now if I had one, and I wish I had one.

I want to visit Oz for the biscuits. I don't want to because of the misozgyny

*possibly something we could use to build a bridge with tras? They shout 'twaw' we retort, 'Don't you think Wagon Wheels have shrunk?'.

Intrigued by the mention of the website, I went looking and found that not only is there a website, there's also a book!

Wagon wheels

Original one yes. There's something really moreish about them despite the fact they taste and feel 'off' when you first bite into them.

I'm also convinced they are smaller now (although that may be because my hands have grown in size since i was five)!

I was gutted when I came back to the UK to discover tescos stopped selling Tim tams. I had high hopes the UK OZ trade deal would bring Tim tams back so I didn’t have to pay £6.50 per pack at the Australian/ NZ coffee shops.

Helleofabore · 11/06/2023 09:25

I have not had a pollywaffle for years. But Arnotts have made chocolate biscuits into an art form. Mint slice, dark choc mint tim tams are awesome and unbeatable. Minties and fantales are family favourites smuggled out in large quantities each 18 months.

Timtams have become currency in this family. You come to stay, you become and international Tim tam courier!

Have you tried biting the diagonally opposite corners of a penguin biscuit and using it as a straw to drink tea? Omg!

I think it originated as a thing with Tim Tams.

Yes, yes I have. Many many times. In fact I'm hard pressed to think of a time I had a Penguin without doing this since I found out about Tim Tams [thank you Natalie Imbruglia]...as a Penguin always came with a hot tea or coffee.

This thread is really upsetting me. Reported.

SunnyEgg · 11/06/2023 09:21

Not biscuits but since golden gaytimes came up I feel it’s a no brainer how this will go down

SunnyEgg · 11/06/2023 09:20

Out of all the posts on these boards the one on Tim Tams has struck me to the core

Mint slice, pollywaffles and minties all good

Helleofabore · 11/06/2023 09:18

SinnerBoy · 11/06/2023 02:10

Strangely, in all the times I've been to Oz, this year was the first time I've had Tim Tams. Golden Gaytimes, yes.

I liked the Tim Tams, even though they're knock off Penguins.

Oh my. That is fighting words there. Tim tams are superior in the texture of the biscuit and the quality of the chocolate.

And golden gaytimes are ice creams.
