 TAKES THE BISCUIT!

and Valentine is not impressed !



PEEK FREAN  Makers of Famous Biscuits! With a warrant to supply the Queen with biscuits. My Grandmother  Ivy LeMay, worked at their factory when I was a child and she worked the late shift. When my siblings and I were young sometimes my dad would visit his parents and take us to pick up our Nan at the factory when she finished her shift.
She would come out with a big brown paper bag filled with broken biscuits which she could buy for 2 pennies, in old money. She would also bring us the QUEEN'S biscuits! These were about three inches long and an inch or so wide and about half an inch thick , a biscuit covered in milk chocolate, not un similar to the club biscuits of today but much bigger and nicer.
So the words Peek Frean Biscuits have a special place in my heart .

 So I was over the moon when I found these tins on ebay , I'd managed to get a Huntley and Palmer tin like the top two a few years back and it's lovely to now have these Peek Frean ones.
