    You can beg all you want. You are not getting any of mine.

    I hear tell chocolate affects the same receptors in the brain as cocaine. Takes a lot more chocolate to have the same effect as cocaine, though.

    And you look bloody peculiar if you try to administer it by the same route!

    Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. I like Rich Tea, Nice, fig rolls and especially Garibaldi biccies.
  • My wife is very partial to these: https://tinyurl.com/2zeetnbs
  • Florentines are one of my favourite things, BT.
    But I also admit to liking fig rolls and garibaldis, and I wouldn’t say no to a rich tea biscuit either.

    I'll eat nearly anything if someone else paid for it.

    OK, I'll eat almost anything anyway, but someone else paying can be the clincher.

    My begging to differ means yours are safe, at least from me. 😉

    The love that most people have for chocolate is totally lost on me. While there are a few chocolate things I really like, I can, for the most part, take or leave it. (Except when it comes to cake or ice cream; I don’t like chocolate cake or chocolate ice cream at all, and only eat them when politeness requires.) For me, chocolate in a small supporting role is almost always better than chocolate in a starring role.

    It just means more for the rest of y’all.

    Does it have to be offered to you or are you some sort of omnivorous kleptomaniac? Am wondering if I need to hide my new laptop from your chompers.

    When you visit Oz go to a supermarket & check out Arnott’s Chocolate Monte biscuits….

    I am with you all the way. On the other hand, lemon, count me in.

    For me it would be almond. Or caramel. I’m powerless to say no to either one.
