It sounds like a dream, but then you get 4 or 5 from the end and you feel a bit sick and your mouth feels dry from all the digestive-ness, but you plough on anyway Because. You. Must. Finish 🙄
Then the next day all you can taste is digestive 🤣
Much better to just not buy them in the first place 🤣🤣🤣Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

I love biscuits and would cheerfully live on them, so I only buy Rich Tea as they are a lot less addictive than the rest. They do make a cup of tea less wet though
Mr Mee loves a Jaffa cake and we sometimes split a pack in an evening . I have three and he has six ( only nine in a pack these days !) I consider it a measure of his love that he shares with me, because he could easily manage the whole pack

There have been many occasions where I have forced BF to eat a jaffa cake, so I can then claim I didn't eat the whole pack 🤣Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

I want you to know that I'm reading this near lunch time and I had to put on lunch so I wouldn't just eat biscuits. I'm running out of my new favourite gingerbread digestives.5

Just catching up and wow that sounds like a stressful time on pay day but glad you managed to get it sorted.
As for biscuits, I can eat a whole pack of Rich Tea in one go and not feel sorry about it 🤣 DH and I got into a bad habit of sharing a packet of biscuits a day when we were away for the weekend - went through 4 packets of caramel digestives between us 😲Emergency Fund - £8572.39 / £10,000 :: Mortgage OP 2025 - £LISA 24/25 - £3200 / £4000 :: NSD 2025 - 2 / 150 :: Books Read: 1 / 52 :: Decluttering - 4 / 1000Engaged 9th December 2010 :: Married 29th October 2015 :: Bought a House 13th January 20173
