imho a nil-nil draw would be an accurate reflection of the tastelessness of these two inedible-unless-dunked no marks of the biscuit world... can you tell I'm a big fan?
2009-06-09 11:20:09
I take it you abstained then.

I felt duty bound to exercise my franchise, so with the none of the extremist options available à la Eurpoean Elections, I voted Hobnobs.

This was mainly out of spite as I imagine those husky looking bits (are they the hobs or nobs?) are slightly less palatable than a cardboard digestive - a bit like adding grit to cardboard then saying 'behold a new biscuit, the Hobnob', mmm...

These biscuits are both excellent and versatile.

You can eat them as they they are, dunk them, or pile some cream and are jam on them. What more do you want?

I digress...

We regularly have contests in the office to see who can dunk the digestive longest. I assumed every office did that. We haven't progressed to olympic electronically timed standards yet. We find you don't need that, if everyone starts at the same time. We find this leads to more failed attempts (biscuit breakage is the typical fail, we did have one handle fail many moons ago, the rules state you must have one hand on the the cup and it be suspended in air, other common fails are boss distraction, phone distraction, or short skirt walking up the road distraction, general undefined distraction) This all adds to the drama and excitement.

We are attempting to develop an office olympics, so far we have some poor events. But I argue the real olympics is full of them aswell. So thats fair doos.

both office golf and office rowing are excellent. Coxed fours are particularly good.
