Rebecca Thurgood	I drink from a Che Guevara mug with the slogan " Hasta La Victoria Siempre" emblazoned on it. It recently acquired a nasty chip on the rim. This was caused by a souvenir bottle of ouzo in the shape of a violin toppling off the welsh dresser and crashing into the mug. It had been dislodged by my over excited jumping up and down as the England Rugby team won the Rugby World Cup.
Tricia Dearborn	Dear Nicey, I've noticed some discussion of French biscuits on the site, and thought I'd mention one I came across while staying in the Loire valley towards the end of 2002. I was studying at a French language school near Sancerre, and I found these biscuits in a little shop in Sancerre itself. The biscuits were called 'langues des sorcières' (witches' tongues — apparently the region was once known for witches). They're large but quite thin and sort of teardrop shaped — about 6 inches long and 3 or 4 wide at the widest bit — crispy with a distinct honey taste, and they have some kind of sticky glaze and nut bits towards the centre, if I remember rightly. We weren't supposed to eat in class, but if I brought these along everyone (including the teacher) scoffed them. I do recall them being very nice with a cup of tea (even though the only tea I could get hold of was Lipton's Yellow Label). I think I was told they were a local speciality, but my French is fairly bad so I could be wrong. Tricia
	Nicey replies: That sounds like a local variation on the 'langues des chats'. You do have to watch out for the Liptons Yellow Label tea it can confuse the palette, but it is better than nothing, just.
Andrew Maddison Fox's Butter Crinkle Crunch Review	Hi There, Just been perusing your biscuit archive and I thought I ought to throw in my two-penneth worth in favour of Fox's Butter Crinkle Cruch biscuits, in my opinion, if not the best biscuit in the world, then definately in the top 5. The high sugar content makes them the perfect biscuit pick-me-up for the end of a long hard day. As a dinghy sailing instructor who frequently spends all day enjoying the best that the British weather can throw at me, I'd say these biscuits have saved my sense of humour from certain death on more than one occasion, only McVitie's (plain) chocolate digestives have proven the same level of reliability. Well Many thanks for a highly informative website - keep up the good work, Yours - Andrew.
	Nicey replies: As it so happens I had three of them yesterday for elevensees, they are very nice aren't they.
Matthew Revell	Howdy Nicey, I'm off to New York, New York, next week, with my dearly beloved. I was wondering if any of your readers could recommend a spot for a decent NCOTAASD, preferably in Manhattan. Matthew.
	Nicey replies: How about it all you US tea drinkers where should Matt go?
Nicky B	Dear Nicey, The lovely thing about Jaffa Cakes is that they are low in fat, so I can scoff them during my post-Christmas diet.  They should get a special award for that.  They even put them in convenient packs of 3.  Genius. Luvvies, Nicky B
	Nicey replies: That's right its the Jaffa Cake's secret weapon, and yet another reason why its a ornate sponge CAKE.
