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!

That's an impressive array of creepy crawlers. Are you currently in a warm stretch of water?

We're between Faro and Portimao, hoping to get into port early. We're inundated with grasshoppers and a few mole crickets, they saw a whale earlier, I was asleep. We've had the odd bat, too.

Mole crickets are awesome. They can fly?

Yes, these were - I think - Two Spot Mole Crickets and have their wings folded back, uncovered. They're right little bruisers.

Mole Cricket:

Different species to the one I've seen, European mole cricket 🏏

Oh my. Someone has just posted this on Twitter- X

A tea cake umbrella ! ( £55)

I don't know what's going on, I just miss Tunnocks because the only time I had them was when I was in Edinburgh (I am American) and I was in love. I could probably get some at World Market but I just don't think it would be the same.

Am I wrong? That was the closest to the picture online...

@SinnerBoy it's definitely cricket. There may be more than one species of mole cricket. You can see why the European mole cricket got its name though.

An American guy discovering Snowballs and sharing teacakes with his family who were loving it.

His reaction to trying pickled onion Monster Munch was hilariously sweet - he was completely blown away!

Tbf pickled monster munch are pretty awesome.

Pretty awesome?? You mean totally awesome. If there could only be one type of crisps going forward it would have to be pickled onion monster munch.

The dad said he's moving to the UK. They might have enjoyed them more if they hadn't stuffed them in whole!

hummmm
winter= snow= think of snowballs

Also- 32 days to sort out Teacakes advent calendar …..
( which means buying 5x 6 teacake boxes with 5 spare / extra for Xmas day- breakfast, lunch, dinner, yum yum)

It's a hard job, but someone's got to do it 😁

Caramel wafers have shot up by about 50p in Asda in the last couple of weeks!

I know. I had to forego them in this fortnight's delivery.

Anyone else had a large intake of teacakes this week whilst following the Fife case?

I've only had one or two
