    Yippee!
    Second NSD since the beginning of the month.
    Did get an earful from ds2 and ds3, both continually saying there's nothing to eat angry-smiley-030.gif. I told them they had the choice of fruit, twinks hobnobs, fairy cakes, hm hot x buns, belgian fingers, or home made breadand the rest of the roast chicken from the other day, and that was before tea.
    I still got 'but we don't want them we want sweets':wall:
    Did not give in though, they'll get used to itwink.gif

    Spent 1.03 on two baked potatoes today. Planning on next three days being nds as working lates and won't be at shops and taking my dinner with me.

    The cheese biscutes, hobnobs, shortbread etc. How long do they last?

    Depends on how well you hide them :D My first batch of hobnobs only lasted a couple of days between my son and his mate, me and the dog. Have read other posts saying that people freeze some.

    Have you been at Twinks Hob Nobs at all??? or are you just dreamily thinking about them?:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Great news though, and these things do happen, so good luck to all!

    I know I spotted it a couple of hours after I'd posted, but thought you'd all missed it:o

    Yes the Twinks (as we call them in our house) are on my mind most of the time, in fact they shout to me when they're in the cupboard - 'eat me, eat me' :rotfl:
