[02:25] <daftykins> Robbie Coltrane died :o
[02:28] <zxmpi> was tempted to bung on blackadder episode where he plays mr. johnson
[17:40] <daftykins> £1 chocolate oranges were liberated this very afternoon!
[17:58] <penguin42> excellent
[18:01] <davef> mmm.. unfortunately I devoured both of my exports
[18:02] <daftykins> RIP
[18:05] <davef> and I found a decent facsimile of jaffa cakes
[18:11] <daftykins> ooh that sounds like a stroke of luck
[18:13] <daftykins> i saw some on discount today but abstained
[19:15] <zxmpi> i have one sassenach talking about a great biscuit shortage in uk. might want to stock up 
[19:48] <daftykins> a what now o0
[19:55] <zxmpi> kinda like the gingernut biscuit shortage of a few years back but more biscuits involved
[19:57] <daftykins> oh i just wasn't familiar with "Sassenach" :P
[19:57] <penguin42> wasn't some of that due to flooding at McVities in carlisle?
[19:57] <daftykins> those poor biscuits :(
[19:57] <zxmpi> ancient celtic word translates as saxon. it is not a nice thing to be called
[20:02] <zxmpi> yeah single plant was flooded and no gingernuts for nearly a year iirc. irish plant was working overtime but they disappeared to uk at great profit
[20:05] <penguin42> since then one of the few mcvities competitors has failed
[20:08] <zxmpi> brexit has changed the rules for a lot of businesses
[20:09] <penguin42> now we can have imperial biscuits!
[20:10] <zxmpi> weevils and all
[20:10]  * penguin42 measures his weevils
[20:11] <zxmpi> and no chocolate chip cookies as they're too american
[20:22] <zxmpi> no nice or garibaldi either
[20:25] <penguin42> fortunately I think we have local Oreo production
[20:38] <zxmpi> you do need something to grit the roads when it snows :-P
[21:45] <daftykins> hehe
[22:01] <zxmpi> right blackadder. dr. johnson...
