I really fancy a Wagon Wheel now, you bastards. And a Jaffa Cake.

Can you still get Wagon Wheels? When I was a lad they were huge things, a dinner plate sized treat covered in naff chocolate with a sort of marshmallow biscuit combo on the inside. Yellow packet with a picture of a horse drawn wagon on the front, unsurprisingly.

Feel quite melancholy now.

Wagon Wheels are the spawn of Beelzebub, they're absolutely foul.

Have you confused Wagon Wheels with U2?

It wouldn't surprise me if they're the arseholes responsible for them.

Wagon Wheels are a treat for me (Wagon Wheels)
They’re the biggest biscuit
You ever did see (Wagon Wheels),
Marshmallow filled, they taste so grand,
A biscuit filled to beat the band.

Lyrics Bono/The Edge circa 1964

What a strange last few pages. For a while I thought I was on Netmums then realised I must have strayed onto the Bells forum.

I like my wagon wheels jammy. Just like we will be if we stay up this season.

Anyway, my favourite childhood biscuit was a Trio. We've got a trio of shits in charge of our Club, of which my favourite was and still is the Mint flavour.

Stolen from the Burton Biscuits website........

Contrary to popular belief, Wagon Wheels have not actually got smaller, most often our first Wagon Wheel experience is in childhood and hence our hands are much smaller.
 
If you believe that, you'll believe that Appy Arry pays his taxes.

I don't get this site. Anyone else can write rubbish about biscuits that's unrelated to the topic in question. I put stuff up and it gets deleted. No wonder people left and joined TBAR.

You lot should grow up.
