Tunnocks Thread 2

[Boiledbeetle]

The question asked in Thread 1 has still not been answered satisfactorily, and so the quest continues to discover which side of the fence Tunnocks are on or whether they are in fact sat atop the fence throwing Snowballls and Tea cakes at both sides.

I have no idea where the link below will send you. hopefully to the original thread and at the start, but it could be a completely different thread half way through. I'm too full of sugar to concentrate properly!

I feel a poem coming on, would now be a good time?

Mwahhahahaha!

Boiled I should have known that you are a Daim opening expert 😄

Are you stalking my twitter by any chance!

I have been keeping all my caramel wafer wrappers, neatly folded into thin strips (for some craft project - I don’t know what, exactly, but I was sure they would Come In Handy), but dh threw them away, so now I have had to start building up my collection again.

This means eating even more caramel wafers - such a hardship. 😂😂😂

I appear to have purchased an off box of Tunnocks tea cakes.

That or..... they've changed the recipe!!!!

Please let it be an off box

He did what?????

I hope he is under the patio by now

Hi Boiled, can you guess what my cousin is getting for Winterval?

@SinnerBoy I'm saving my posts on the other thread so thought I'd answer this here

I'm guessing two things...

Under the duvet of darkness volume 2 or Tunnocks!!

or volume 1

Or all of the above!!

She bought a hard copy of ^Under the Duvet," so I'll be getting her the new one.

Hi Boiled, I'm glad to hear that you're moving forward with the poetry publication. More importantly, have the doctors found anything out about your pain?

No. Had an appointment on Friday that was completely pointless (and i do mean completely pointless, it was like talking to a brick wall for all the use it bloody was, but he did show me his hairless legs! I do wish i was making this shit up but I'm honestly not! And this was the consultant! Pals at my local hospital will be so sick of me foning up going what the fuck??) and I was left none the wiser as to what is going on or what they found on the bloody CT scan in August. But they are doing another one 1st November. At this point I'm just going with it! At some point i might get a consultant who realised the patient is the purpose of his work and not an interruption of it!

So sorry for you. The app has decided that I can only use text so I I'm sending teacakes, snowballs, caramel wafers and caramel logs together with a seriously big bunch of flowers.

Why thank you!

Oh what lovely flowers!

And tea cakes that aren't off! Such joy!

I am famed in my family for being the person who if it can go wrong it will go wrong. So Friday didn't actually register as being that bad until a nurse caught me as i was leaving to give me a complaint leaflet and to tell me that two nurses were going to be complaining on my behalf and urged me to. I suspect there is issues with this guy that the nurses are rather sick of!

So you think that you're getting shit. The nurses think you're getting shit. You are probably getting shit.

Give some shit back. Nil Carborundum!

Blimey, if the nurses are proffering complaint forms to you, he must be seriously crap!

That was my thinking. They don't usually seek you out and beg you to take the details for pals, so I'm guessing they are really really sick of this guy

Totally missing the point as usual, but why did he think you wanted to see his hairless legs? Was it in any way related to your appt? Or did he just whip them out and say “da da dah” whilst you were discussing something completely different? ( obv not expecting details of your illness here).

Now I’m worried about teacakes as I also thought mine were off yesterday. I hope it’s a bad batch and not a recipe change.

That's truly shit about the consultant Boiled. Seriously creepy. If you are being encouraged by the nursing staff - then that's tip of the iceberg I reckon.
Get that form in, and ask for another consultant if possible.

RTB*

*report the bastard

All the Tunnocks @Boiledbeetle

That's awful Boiledbeetle.

I finally found caramel wafers and thought they tasted a bit stale. I hope no one is tampering with our Tunnocks.

The leg thing erm.... it was sort of related to the conversation, but I still didn't want my consultant showing me and going on about his hairless legs and how they are hairless because he has an illness - Unsurprisingly I wanted to know what was wrong with me.

I still can't believe I have no fucking clue!

I'm sure him and his legs aren't going anywhere any time soon, I'll deal with it later in the week.

I meant to phone to day but have instead spent the day correcting all the fuck ups I found yesterday and then tearing my hair out with the bloody Amazon cover creator, which is the wankiest piece of shit ever!

so I have a cover, I have contents. I will have one last check through tonight and then have a nervous breakdown tomorrow, then give my head a wobble and myself a good talking to and then order the proof.

You do all realise don't you that a book with twice the amount of poems is going to cost more than the last one (Amazon charge by the page).

I've manged to get it down to 208 pages.

Amazon can take more of my money. It'll be worth it. More than worth it.

Take all the down time you need @Boiledbeetle

I can't envisage a situation where anyone would wish to see the Consultant's legs during their consultation. That is so much the wrong way round. 😬

Did you ever watch "A Very Peculiar Practice"?

There's a thread in chat about how Tunnocks don't taste the same. They e either changed the recipe or there's a faulty batch perhaps.

Oh FFS!

Just starting to have a read through the corrected version...Fucking acknowledgements page again!!! And i find my first mistake! People who proof read for a living i take my hat off to you! Because I'm crap at it!

I hope they've just had quality issues and not changed the recipes!
