Will agree with the fig rolls - only not in the woods! I often find that once I open a packet, they are so moorish, that the packet soon gets consumed. I'm sure we are all aware of the effects of that :rofl:

So in the woods, I'd go with good old Rich Tea - a drink's too wet without one :)

eggy :yuck:
I actually meant those wee sweeties with the horrid surprise inside though.

I like my sweet things simple :)

Tunnock's factory is the next village along; we joke that you can tell what day of the week it is by the smell wafting through Uddingston. Toasted coconut, caramel boiling, hot melted chocolate, thon funny white mallow filling for the teacakes......a caramel wafer is hard to beat with a mug of tea :D

cheers,

Yvelines, north-west of Paris, France.
Biscuits, brown, are biscuits that are bloody browned off.
Tell me, boys, have you any complaints?

Nope, forshop-bought stuff, you can't beat Garibaldis, no matter how bit a stick you cut from the hedgerow.

Now, home made, my mum used to make some excellent cookies with oatmeal flakes and golden syrup...

Lets give it a twist shall we? Would you make one choice in cold weather and a different one in warm? Or would they be the same?

Can't beat some flapjack! I tend to add bits and pieces like desiccated coconut, mixed nuts and often substitute muesli for plain oats. In my last batch I even added peanut butter (actually I think it was almond butter). My niece found a recipe using condensed milk. Oh that was good!

Always suits a cup of tea.

I've just remembered chocolate covered malted milk biscuits, went through nearly a whole pack sitting in front of a fire with a cuppa. King of biscuits, you can poke your bourbons and the pansy custard creams!

No one has mentioned McVitie Boasters?! :confused::eek:

Maryland Chocolate Chip are acceptable in a pinch.


Also anyone else tried Hairy Bikers Flapjacks... (though they call them Chewy Cranberry & Apricot Bites)

Made with apple juice, maple syrup, dried cranberries, dried apricots, sultanas, dessicated coconut, flaked almonds, porridge oats and rice krispies.

They are seriously moreish
