Celebrating finally breaking my two hour barrier on the commute since getting back on the road bike. One hour forty-five minutes and no pain killers.

Spine feels lumpy but not in any pain, for a change.

On target for this in April. Oh yes.

Oh s*d off.

Thanks. You have a nice day too.

Do they do Diet HobNobs?

The No1 biscuit. Fact!

I’ve got uncomfortable pants on.

Do they do Diet HobNobs?

yup. they are called hobnobs.

Really, I’d have to rate a dark chocolate digestive over a hobnob of any description.

That’s because there’s something wrong with you. You’ll be bigging up Rich Tea next.

Well, I certainly won’t be dissing them.

How do you feel about “Nice” biscuits?

😆 Jamie

They do, chocolate chip hob nobs, these could be the diet version?

How do you feel about “Nice” biscuits?

I think they’re a bit full of themselves, going around bigging themselves up. They’re not even that nice, IMHO.

I’ve recently discovered the co-op own brand multi-packs – Nice, shortbread, and custard cream all in the same packet. Heaven! You can keep your fancy chocolate biscuits.

Nice biscuits are very “middle of the road”. I mean, who calls anything nice? Sounds like an old person discussing that afternoons bingo over a Werthers Original….

BONUS ROUND: There is a marketing opportunity there! Sell “Nice” biscuits for teanagers that have been brought up to date, and proclaim “RAD”, or “SIC” or “WICKED” or whatever the popular vernacular of the day might be for 15yo’s ??

I agree.

I don’t trust the Hob Nob.
Coming round here with it’s uninteresting texture and over reliance on it’s memorable name.

The name is marketing genius though.
Imagine Rowan Atkinson saying it – see?

Caramel Digestive FTW.

I agree, but for marketing purposes they decided not to call them “Bleurgh”.

I can’t understand why you’re calling the Hob Nob’s texture uninteresting while espousing the sandy blandness of the digestive.

But the H**N** is neither one thing or the other.

Neither the smooth, multi layered, almost existential depth of the digestive nor the taste sensation and angsty crunch of the cereal bar.

Sandy Blandness is the name of Nicholas Parson’s least favourite lovechild, btw.

Blue Ribbanned.

Chocolate Hobnobs instigated dysentery for me once.

Do they still come in a posh tub, separated from the riff-raff?

I know the smallest integer value of hobnobs is one packet, not sure about the tubes.
