With thanks to Flibz, who used this first

But I've been looking for a way of animating "Jess in a trilby"
for ages, and Jess's owner just send me the same fatcat pic.

yeah! Nicey! I'm actually really hungry -

could you get some bacon while your there? I'd love a bacon sarnie.

You know we always

get bacon. You can come and have your bacon sarnie later. What sauce would you like in it?

BTW We have all recovered from Winter vomiting now, so you are safe to come round.

Tunnocks Teacakes

Thanks for that Nacho

They do seem to have loyal following. I often get emails about them.

BTW We liked your mis-heard lyrics thing.

(

nicey, Fri 1 Feb 2002, 7:40, archived)

Oh thank you!

Have you tried getting 2 rich tea biscuits, putting a marshmallow in each one, and a square of chocolate on top of one marshmallow, microwaving them then sticking it together as a biscuity type sandwich? I'm sure you probably have...you are the expert in these matters after all!

(Nacho, Fri 1 Feb 2002, 7:51, archived)

No I haven't

Sounds like you need to be quite together to organise that. Also I could imagine it getting very messy and potentially dangerous if not done by experienced biscuit technicians. Still full marks for giving the humble rich tea such an exciting mission. What state of mind were you in when you came up with that?

(

nicey, Fri 1 Feb 2002, 8:05, archived)

nothing outragious - state of mind wise

I haven't tried it for years, cos I don't eat Princess marshmallows anymore. Used to eat that biscuit combination when I was a teenager. I think I saw it on "Why Don't You" or "Get Stuffed" or something. Can't remember that far back!
Melted mars bars and Snickers with broken up biscuits stirred in is good. And you can probably guess the state of mind that led to that

(Nacho, Fri 1 Feb 2002, 8:21, archived)

those

choco-mallow contraptions are called "s'mores" in the u.s. and are very good.

I'd go for Garibaldis and Fig Rolls

but they're not to everyone's taste.

(

PeterSeychelles, Fri 1 Feb 2002, 8:02, archived)

Good shout Mr Seychelles

Both are fine fruit based biscuits. My friends wife won't allow him to buy Gariballdis, as she doesn't accept that they are biscuits. Terrible business that.

Jammie dodgers please . . .

But try to avoid those Satchi and Satchi packs !!!!

(Jodrell, Fri 1 Feb 2002, 8:21, archived)

Quite

I initially thought the Jam wrestlers were good, then Ifound out they were a Satchi and Satchi thing, and I thought bollocks to that. Also have you noticed they've changed the design on the top of the biscuit.

(

nicey, Fri 1 Feb 2002, 8:29, archived)

Nicey,

Your list of faves leads me to believe that you favour the more simple, rustic biscuit breeds, so I'd be intrigued to hear where you stand on Toffypops. Care to share with the rest of the class?

I'll have to look into

the uni bandwidth usage policy first - certainly don't want b3ta turned off...

Also, my server is also my client, so I would have to rebuild one of my other PC's
as a server. Otherwise my photoshopping may interfere with the server somewhat...

Drop me a mail, we'll discuss requirements etc. Currently running Cold Fusion 5
