Bitchy regulars and royalty

[Hullygully]

Are they the same?

It's got very confusing

I don't like the word bitchy. It's sexist.

I don't like the royals either.

There are people who use squirty cream??

Salmo, exactamundo

Oh yes, there are

And they should be hunted down and killed.

Twice

The chocolate flaking off a Curly Wurly is part of the fun.

Scone rhymes with gone.

And NO butter. Jam, then cream.

"gone" ?

You have lost gavel privileges.

Hand it over.

Squirty cream is the Devils Work.

And should only be used in jest.

No.

scone/gone, scone/gone, scone/gone, scone/gone, scone/gone.

There you go

ink? You think I don't wear full protective gear when I come on MN? Give over, pet.

Maryz, it's ok, I forgive you. You're allowed to make a mistake. Just come over to the side of truth and rightness and we can be friends again.

Definitely yoghurt, I refuse to spell it any other way.

Talking of curly wurly, do you remember Texan bars? The were like curly wirlies but solid, not twisty and holey, and the ad was a cowboy saying 'a man's gotta chew what a man's gotta chew'

Please say someone remembers.

I've never stood on yoghurt, far to flimsy to hold my weight

Jaffa Cakes.
A pet subject of mine.

Food is zero rated for VAT
However confectionery attracts VAT at standard rate (there is a precise legal definition of confectionery: it includes sweets, chocolates and crystallised fruit. The legislation is nothing if not detailed.)
Cakes and biscuits are exceptions to the confectionery rule, therefore zero rated.
There is a further exception however. Chocolate biscuits do attract VAT.

The issue before the VAT Tribunal was therefore, was it a cake or a (chocolate) biscuit?

The answer was, it is a cake. There is a long list of criteria against which to consider the question, including packaging, where in a shop it is stocked, and what happens to it when it goes stale.

There are equally fascinating rulings on flapjacks, teacakes (the soft mallow chocolate biscuit sort) and other food stuffs.

Anybody think I need a hobby? Or a life?

I thought Texan bars were chocolate covered nougat

Now there's a thread for the pedants

Ooh, a thread entertaining enough that I've read over half of it ....
That doesn't happen so often these days I can tell you, not like in the old days before the Jaffa cake wars (clearly a biscuit BTW - a sorry apology for a cake )

Not sure we have a fully formed MN policy on yogurt Maryz, but personally I'm fond of goat's or sheep's yogurt, especially with berries and maple syrup for breakfast. Mmmmmmmm

Anyway one was going to say ... one is amused
(in barely concealed bid for royalty status )

Wasn't that Aztecs? They were revolting in the original version. Fruit and nugget, as we called it.

Texan, a mighty big chew.

Thank you Thornrose!

But my god, how old does watching that ad make me feel?

Maryz, it's yog ( as in bog) and urt (as in hurt, but maybe not so uury)

Yes, obviously I cross posted with Cashmiriana, and possibly I bow to her expert knowledge and opinion on the Jaffa cakes still think nice, juicy choccie biscuit really
