What's going on??

So sitting watching the football, its just kicked off and I'm nice and settled but something very strange happened, for some reason my hand moved over and suddenly i'm munching on a biscuit??? I don't even want one. Is this just a habit thing, like having popcorn when watching a movie? I wonder what other snacks I eat without really realising or take any notice of. Who else has done this?

ha ha. we all do that JOPAT111 ... it is so easy... and tell me this... how come you have biscuits in the lounge? :-D

First lesson.. put biscuits a long way away .. and if you have arms like Mr Tickle.. I would just leave them in the shop...

Hope the rest of your day went OK.. Good luck!!! :-)

haha it seems every time I make a cuppa I bring the biscuit jar in with me, hubby has never stopped me of course saving him from getting them himself :0)

Biscuits,I used to eat a packet easily.

I would have to sit on my hands to stop myself eating them if I was watching football.

I can't have biscuits in the house. We have a packet of ginger nuts and treat ourselves to 2 each on a Sunday morning. That way he know how many are left and I can't sneak a few. In some ways, I treat my eating like a person with a drinking problem. I just don't have it in the house because I will weaken. Anyway, it works for me and him indoors. :)
