I do nibble the outer edges first off......but don't proceed to the bottom.
Oh you should, none of the sponge in the way of that luscious orange flavour.
I once did that to a whole packet but left the orange bit to one side and then ate them all in one go :D

Seeing my Facebook news feed cluttered up with comments from my now former colleagues on 177 route saying how it's taking them over two hours to get from Thamesmead to Peckham because of Woolwich Ferry closed, Dartford Crossing closed and Blackwall Tunnel taking the brunt - whilst I'm sitting at home in my dressing gown with my feet up grateful for four days off before I start my new job at a new depot.

Seeing a rear number plate on our road that was so dirty you couldn't see it so to make sure he wasn't fined, which can happen if caught, I decided to make sure he would clean it. After two days of driving around he finally spotted that someone had written 'Cock' on it. Childish I know but well worth it! :lol:

I'm engaged in an email conversation with someone that has the surname "Wanklyn". I can't begin to tell you how happy this makes me.
