        Fucking hang the fuck on a minute. I'd hate to interrupt your little swap meet here, but I need to pick up on something as a matter of urgency.

        RayDeChaussee, I'm going to ignore the fact you support all but three of the football teams in the world, because that doesn't matter to me. But one thing you're not going to get away with is saying your favourite biscuit is the Bakewell Tart.

        The what now? The Bakewell... what? Tart, was that? Since when was a tart a biscuit? Was the question 'favourite cake'? Or 'favourite tart'? Was it fuck. It clearly asked 'favourite biscuit'. Which for me is the modish Nice.

        I didn't let imp off with his Jaffa CAKE, and I'm certainly not letting you get away with a sodding Bakewell Tart. Change it forthwith or I'm calling a swap ban. You will no longer be allowed to trade stickers with the others until you modify that... that... ABBERATION.

          (This thread has caused a stirring in my loins. I'm getting albumed up as soon as the shops open)

            Mnb's just dipped into my Iberian pile and left me with:
            11, 34, 40, 162, 190, 262, 294, 303, 304, 349(x2), 401, 411, 432, 477, 485, 487(x2), 490, 491, 500, 504, 505, 533.

            Going out on another sortie later - this album's going down motherf****r.

            Suffering from a distinct lack of Germans and Russians, though, which merely confirms my hunch that they'll playing out the Euro final.

            EIM, as an Anglo-Scot exiled in Spain I think I'm entitled to three club sides. Don't know what I'd do if they all got drawn in the same Champions League group, though. As for Scotland, that's a life sentence I can't do anything about.

            Let's move on to my tart selection. Perhaps I have transcended the boundaries of biscuitness, but I still feel it's a valid choice. Maybe WSC could extend the category to "Favourite biscuit/tart/cake". We'd all be happy then.

            Thing is I've never really been a biscuit fan. Ok, Clubs, Uniteds, Breakaways and Penguins all played a part in my childhood, and I'm not denying Nice aren't nice or that a Hob Nob dunked in your coffee isn't pleasurable, but for sheer soft, luscious almondness nothing comes close to a bakewell tart, except perhaps a macaroon or an almond slice (depending on the manufacturer, of course).

            If push came to shove, I could stretch to a Tunnocks, but that's as far as I'm prepared to go.

            I'd be happy to open this out into a general discussion. Anyone else got any input?

              I wouldn't.

              And as for never being a biscuit fan, I'm genuinely shocked, saddened and worried. To paraphrase Samuel Johnson, a man who is tired of biscuits is a bit of a dick. And possibly quite creepy. And dangerous. Almost certainly dangerous.

              Interestingly, however, in naming Clubs, Uniteds and Breakaways in your (it has to be said, poor) biscuit selection, you've summed up my football supporting life. So kudos there, I suppose.

              I guess the problem we have, the common ground we lack I suppose, is the whole 'dunked in your coffee' bit. I'm a tea man, and I think tea and biscuits walk hand in hand, like a pair of loved-up newly weds. Coffee and biscuits? Same couple twenty years later.

                Ah, Ray. You have now arrived.

                EIM, Spain and tea just don't mix. I never drank coffee before spending seven weeks in Spain in 1984; I haven't stopped since.

                  This is the third thread I've discussed tea on in the past few hours. Tea, eh? It's like buses. In almost no way whatsoever.

                    Coffee and cigarettes, as well as being a track on my Otis Redding CD, are two things I really would expect myself to be in to, but I'm not. It's weird. They seem right up my street, but neither do anything for me.

                    Cigarettes especially. Everyone expects me to smoke. And seem a little disappointed when I tell them I don't.

                      "Interestingly, however, in naming Clubs, Uniteds and Breakaways in your (it has to be said, poor) biscuit selection, you've summed up my football supporting life."

                      Completely unintentional EIM, but amusing nonetheless. Reminds me of the eighties terrace chant, "There's only one United, and that's a chocolate biscuit."

                      "Spain and tea just don't mix." Now that's where you're wrong, Ursus. I get regular supplies shipped out from Blighty and I couldn't survive without my 4 o'clock cuppa.
                      The only problem in Spain is, what to dunk?
                      Come to think of it, white-chocolate-coated Oreos (http://establedentrodelagravedad.fil...renov_oreo.jpg) are pretty satisfying.
                      I might just change that Bakewell tart selection after all.

                        Actually, 'Coffee and Cigarettes' is the Jim Jarmusch film, innit? 'Cigarettes and Coffee' is the song.

                          Correct.

                          And Rey, I was ruling out resorting to imports. I'm still scarred by asking for tea in cafes and repeatedly getting a cup with warmish tap water and a bag that looked as if it had been left there by British engineers in the late 19th c.

                          Are you in Galicia?

                                                  Don't know how I'm going to fill that post-album void (46 more stickers and I can send away for the last 50). Anyone going to do the latest Bratz album?

                                                    Shit choice of biscuit, mind. But still, at least it *is* a biscuit.
