Bourbons?

Just me or have they all disappeared? I need to sedate ms munky with some and the shops have run dry?

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*

* Spar or the Co Op

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.

😆 You know we’re doing it deliberately, don’t you flash ?

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.

Philistine.

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.

Quite keen on seeing the new one tbh

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

What!!
I was wandering why the shelve at tesco has been empty.!!

I don’t know how I’m going to survive…

Even Pike?

So the cheap pound shop bourbons are the same as Mcvities bourbons? Whaaaaaaaaat????!!

Pike was on local news earlier this evening alive and well and clutching a packet of Oreos.

Aldi has some…..

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 bought some from Lidl and could not believe how cheap they were- 22p

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.
