I love these write up’s @DJ Barry Hammond - it’s very clever how you can make a made up biscuit competition sound so exciting 

 

FWIW, I’d go Gingernut, Custard cream, Jammy Dodger and Choc digestive last four 

[Sir Shep]

Ginger nut beating bourbon is like Burnley beating Man City and on this occasion it makes me feel sick I tells you!

[Livid]

Went for Bourbon cream (can't stand ginger nuts) Custard Cream, Jammy Dodger and Chocolate Digestive.

 

Chocolate Chip Cookie's can vary on quality so I played safe with Custard Cream.

[Sir Shep]

And don’t even get me started on custard creams, I will find you C C fans, I will find you....... 

[Buce]

 

At the time of posting, non-league Gingernut has taken a shock lead over Premier League biscuit Bourbon Cream, Choc Chip Cookie and Hobnob are both being held by unfashionable opposition, and El Classico is so far being dominated by joint-favourite Chocolate Hobnob.

 

I'm wondering if the congested Xmas schedule is taking its toll on the biscuits' fitness?

I've had ten on Choc hob nobs to lift the trophy. I just can't see Ginger Nuts maintaining their form!

Edit...Bourbon creams have scored a 'sneaky late one'!

One of the funniest series of threads in ages!

And how is the vile Custard Cream beating Choc Chip Cookie?

 

Madness.

[Sir Shep]

Bourbon and chocolate chip cookie pulling ahead of the pretenders, excellent stuff.

I’m disappointed these awful people have been given anonymity, I could have filled up my ignore list.

[Tuna]

Could go either way between custard cream/choc chip and Jammy Dodger and hob nob.

With under 24 hours of voting left, we see two ties delicately poised where just a handful of votes could swing the matter in your favourite biscuits favour.

 

if ever there was a time to create multiple accounts, to add your entire family to Foxestalk, to summon @Moose from hibernation - to ensure your favourite gained passage through to the semi-finals - this has to be it.

 

Don’t be misguided into thinking this is ‘just a bit of fun’ and none of this really matters - this is important, this matters, so make sure you do your bit for;

 

Your biscuit needs you! 

[Buce]

 

I wish you'd made it an open poll, so we could all see and ridicule the saddos who think that a Bourbon Cream is superior to a Gingernut.

 

These people need exposing.

Moose walks among us still.

Children, have you ever met the Moosebreath before?
No, of course you haven't, for you're much too good I'm sure.

Don't you be afraid of him, if he should visit you.
He's a great big coward, so I'll tell you what to do:

Hush, hush, hush
Here comes the Moosebreath!
Don't let him come too close to you
He'll catch you if he can.
Just pretend,
That you're a crocodile,
And you will find that Moosebreath will run away a mile.

Say Shoo, shoo,
And stick him with a pin!
Moosebreath will very nearly jump out of his skin.

Say Buzz-Buzz,
Just like the wasp that stings,
Moosebreath will think you are an elephant with wings!

Hush, hush, hush,
Here comes the Moosebreath!
Tell him you got soldiers in your bed,
For he will never guess that they are only made of lead.

Say, Hush, hush!
He'll think that you're asleep.
If you make a lovely snore,
Away he'll softly creep.

Sing this tune, you children one and all,
Moosebreath will run away,
He'll thinks it's Henry Hall!

When the shadows of the evening creep across the sky,
And your mommy comes upstairs to sing a lullaby,
Tell her that the Moosebreath no longer frightens you,
Uncle Henry very kindly told you what to do!

Hush, hush, hush,
Here comes the Moosebreath!
Don't let him come too close to you,
He'll catch you if you can.

Just pretend, your teddy bear's a dog!
Then shout out,
"Fetch him teddy!"
And he'll hop off like a frog!

Say "Meow!"
Pretend that you're a cat,
He'll will think you may scratch and
That will make him fall down flat.

Just pretend he isn't really there,
You will find that Moosebreath will vanish in thin air.

Here's One Way,
To catch him without fail:
Just keep a little salt with you
And put it on his tail!

Moosey has mellowed greatly over time unlike Daggers. there are now many worse than him.

Can we avoid a tie if at all possible please!

 

Although I did mention a tie-breaker should this event in an earlier round, I’d rather not have to split a 50/50 vote, causing more controversy than Brexit in the process.

Tonight's vote is more exciting than Leicester's season.
