Now after all the confusion I forgot to add how can you not finish off a packet of Tim Tams, they are the most irresitable food that I know off other than choclate of course <img src=">

Penguins are Englands answer to our Tim Tams, they're almost the same, but not quite. For example, I could finish a whole pack of Tim Tams, but wouldnt even go out of my way to buy a Penguin.
Tim Tams are a luxury here though, they're known as the currency of the Aussie black market. Not suprising, as if you want them in London, there's only one place to my knowledge that sells them, and packets are the equivalent of $9 Australian...

Sorry I didn't respond to your chat attempts earlier today, the thing told me no one was in with me, then in one rush, all of your messages flashed up and then it said 'Serendipity has left'

I've been dead for a while now, so far I don't like it...

Meanwhile, however, I am singlehandedly raising the intelligence of the whole of Britain. <img src=">

Its a dirty thankless job, but someone has to do it, and you're all welcome to come over and try to help me educate these poor unfortunate souls, who dont know what tim tams are!

Soldier! DH and I had both Penguins and Tim Tams, and taste tested... And our beloved Tim Tams came out the winner. Penguins are alright, but they just dont compare to our Aussie Tim Tams, not that Dystran would ever admit that we've made a superior bikkie... Come on Dystran, its alright to be beaten by the best, you know!

Penguins are individually wrapped, and so, are the superior biscuit of choice.

Only got 1 Tim Tam left by the way Seren. And that will be gone *walks off and comes back* in 10 seconds.

As I explained before, DH, Tim Tams are too good to be individually wrapped, as once you open the packet, theyre so good that you'll want to eat them all. (Yes I know that argument makes no sense, but its late and its the best thing I can come up with).
I am someone who can admit when I'm wrong, DH, but I'm not wrong about my Tim Tams!
