Biscuit alert

93 Replies

Dear friends, I am asking for your help today because one of our dear colleagues is in trouble. Ssh, (whispering) I think Ken,s biscuit consumption is getting out of hand. I,ve noticed a hint of panic when he runs out, and I think he,s near breaking point with the bourbons, anyone any idea how we, as a caring community, can help? Xxx p.s biscuit addicts can be very sensitive, be tactful!

Um, well he admitted to rich teas and coconut cookies as well. Now what can we find as a substitute that he won't devour? I'm not suggesting chocolate flavour fluffies :P

Oh, and the n ginger snaps and chocolate muffins which look ever so like fluffies when the addiction is raging :P

in reply to fenbadger

Hey Mr Badger call my muffins fluffies in disguise? bad badger :P LOL

No-one eats fluffies..............

............... not even evil moggies :O

fenbadger in reply to TheAuthor

Nooooooooooooo Ken, leave them be. You do NOT want to incur the wrath of fluffmeister general. Quick, here's some bourbons. :P :P

TheAuthor in reply to fenbadger

Okay! I didn't eat many, honest!

fenbadger in reply to TheAuthor

OMG apart from panic what are we to do.

I cant believe we're having a real time chat :P

hehehehehehe! I feel like that with my wife! I am not showing her this!

fenbadger in reply to TheAuthor

Will she hit you? :P

TheAuthor profile image
TheAuthor in reply to fenbadger

I cry when she hits me!

Maybe we could try and wean him of bourbons by swapping them with custard creams, brushed with gravy browning to disguise them?? Then when the bourbon habit is broken, stage an intervention telling him he has been fine without bourbons and that we feel that it is for his own good that he swap cream centres for Rich Teas? He's a decent man, surely if we told him of the effect his biscuit eating is having on this community it might shock him into helping himself?

A thought ! Yes I do have them sometimes why dont we get him A six foot trombochino it is the biggest fruit looks like s sort of butternut squash . Very good value we could challenge him to find different recipies for us all.

in reply to Ginsing

Oh dear, just noticed amongst all the skateboarding and mentally abused dogs, that our dear friend is silent, do you think he,s offended, or buried in the biscuit tin? P.s don,t eat fluffies, they give you indigestion! I,m still worried a biscuity hand is going to burst out of my screen and strangle me, now I,m hiding behind the sofa! Xxx

Great news everybody! I am restocked with Bourbons Creams and Coconut Cookies! Panic over as I have had my fix.

Biscuit addiction is a seedy world of plastic wrappers and soft inner centres. I have tried to seek help but I disgusted my counsellor with my habits of crumbs on the carpet. I need help! But I cannot help myself, I just have to eat them.
