    Never found anything better than this.

    Would certainly sedate Ms Munky as well.

    It’s about time to be honest. They’ve had their time – when you can now pick up Choccy Hob nobs for £1 or those Bahlsen thingymabobs for the same price, the day of the bourbon is frankly, numbered.

    RIP bourbon. (and nice/arrow biscuits)

    It could be an urban myth, but I heard that the factory that made them (and ginger biscuits) was damaged in the recent floods.

    (If that isn’t a myth, this will make it one.)

    Yep your right, one factory in Britain produces them and it was flooded recently so no bourbons for a while

    Total arse biscuit bullshit.

    Bourbons are an enduring classic, they may well fall out if flavour with the ‘Hoi polloi’ but those with true class will always know where to look*

    Those with true class would know that the “the” before “hoi polloi” was surplus to requirements.

    Certainly less common in France since the days of Louis XIV and the like, revolution saw to that. Still big in Spain and Luxembourg.

    Dad’s Army is an enduring classic and they’re all dead.

    Maybe when you lot can pronounce “bahlsen”, you’ll welcome them in as the biscuity enlightenment that they are. Until then, enjoy your soggy bourbons.

    ipad auto correct, “the” should have read “*******”

    McVities in Carlisle who make Bourbons for a few different brands was flooded. Couple of other biscuits are in short supply as well. Apparently they are struggling to repair the kiln.

    Kick this shit out of rich tea and digestives. But that’s not saying a lot.

    I thought I was being paranoid, but there is an actual shortage. I’d better find somewhere to stock up, no bahlsen thing is going to survive the dunk like a bourbon

    See any supermarket own brand goods, Tesco etc don’t manufacture their own stuff.

    Tesco are the king of bourbons for me.
    Has any one else spotted the Fox’s bourbon creams appearing?? They’ve obviously spotted a whole in the market and jumped quick, never seen them before

    I always have a pack delivered from Tesco every week, but noticed that they had gone off the website. Been getting a couple of the Fox’s ones the last two weeks.
