Tunnocks Thread 2

Good for you dear Beetle. All you are asking for is a proper consultation. I hope that Bare Legs gets sorted and that you get someone who can actually centre their patient.😊

While I would love to hear that Dr. Legs has had his arse handed to him on a plate, I would rather hear that you have seen a competent consultant who has provided a sensible diagnosis and a treatment.

Hope you're having a lovely time.

We left home at 4.35am and the train was 5.14!

Quick! Delete the one with the caramel wafer and Suffragette ribbon, you'll have the cops waiting for you at the next stop!

Ds and I are making loom bracelets on the train. Dd is typically teenage grumpy. I have Tunnocks.

I'm sorry it made you cry 💐

I just popped in to say I have selflessly tested another box of teacakes today and they are back to usual standards. They have the same bb date but different batch number as my gritty ones. I’m tempted to complain though now I know they send freebies.

Congratulations boiled, you have worked bloody hard for us all on the next book in the series. Thank you for doing it and enjoy your evening.

Cervix, your wankerchief reminds me of my twatman ( aka the sperm doner by dd) Your poem made me cry. Escape has been amazing.

That steak gif has just put me off my wotsits sandwiches 🤢 Wankerchief used to order it purposely when I had terrible pregnancy sickness knowing that I'd spend the meal vomiting despite trying my best not to look at his plate or him and close off my nostrils. He thought I was exaggerating and doing it to control him 🙄 lovely chap! Hope you enjoy it BoiledBeetle, you have worked so hard and I know it will all be worthwhile.

I had an email back from Tunnocks today and they are sending me goodies in the post by way of an apology! Dd says she thought they did t taste as good either and agrees the teacakes are a little gritty. She had two just to make sure.

I was a nurse too @SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius. I qualified in September 2004 seems so long ago now. I'm not sure I'll ever go back. Chronic illness and nursing didn't mix nor did autism and I found the wards too much due to the people I worked with. Some were amazing but generally very cliquey and backstabbing. I loved general practice and do miss that. I'd have to do a return to nursing course and at the moment I haven't the energy plus wankerchief is liable to be someone I bump into regularly.

I am off to Legoland tomorrow with Dd and ds. I am very excited! I love lego and find it very therapeutic. In fact I think I should build some suffragette coloured Lego. I'm not very creative though. Ds will create something for me if I ask and tell him to do it in suffragette colours. He's a great ally. He's 8. We had the libdems at the door last week and he joined in our hearty discussion with the scared man on the doorstep. Ds was quick to point out his long flowing locks didn't make him a girl. I'm very proud of them both.

The caramel wafers are packed and I shall make them visible in the pocket of a rucksack so any passing terfs can smile knowingly.

That’s a good idea, @Boiledbeetle - I’m in the WhatsApp group so I can call them.

I do like a Gu thing too - dh has to be ruthless with the empties, so we don’t end up with a cupboard full of empty ramekins.

Well done, @Boiledbeetle - you deserve a Tunnock’s product or two, with a nice cup of tea, to get up your strength for all that steak and chipses.

I have had a couple of Caramel wafers - it is 40 years ago today that I started my nurse training, at Manchester Royal Infirmary. I didn’t stay in nursing - I left after 6 years and went to university, then went back to it when I was first married, but when I had ds3, I stopped because my take home pay would have equalled my childcare costs, with barely enough left over for a packet of Tunnock’s teacakes, but some of my set are still nursing.

They are having a reunion soon but I’m not going this time - long covid and weight related mobility issues make the travelling too much - but I will be raising a glass or several to them all.

Well done, that is wonderful news. Will you be having mushrooms and fried onions with the steak?

I'm drooling. Enjoy your reward for your hard work!

Stellar work BB!

I am envious. I miss our borrowed cats a great deal. Enjoy being imprisoned by fluff.

I've just opened a new packet if car wafers and they are definitely not as good so I've emailed Tunnocks to see what they say. Hopefully it's a temporary issue.

Sorry Boiled. I'm used to the computer based calendar that tells me about the 27 things that I need to do today and reminds me about the 305 things that I didn't do in the past. We have a paper calendar in the kitchen. Dh's cousin sent it as a Christmas present. Every month has a fresh picture of her rugrats. The current one shows them being amazed that leaves fall off trees in the Autumn. Each day has about 2.5 cm squared to write information in. Fucking annoying and useless piece of kit. Use the calendar on your PC or phone.
