BISCUITS to DE-ICE?
Hi all just a quick question,
Since the suspension of biscuits at a secret Oxon airbase, would there be any scope to using the mountain of biscuits remaining on the shelves as a rudimentary type of grit. I don’t know if the custard creams would help but the oat biscuit must have some de icing ability.
Oh well at least there isn’t a war on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stay safe.

“Strawberry creams”
As I embrace the RAF policy on equal opportunity and sexual equality I cannot justify typing
“GAYER”
As that would be wrong on so many levels.
Standing by for incoming and spelling corrections.

Biscuits, Brown. Nothing else comes close. BDR repairs, flak jacket filling, friction surface, very small sand bags, anything but eat the bl00dy things .....

Biscuits, Brown, AB
I'm sure that they were devised at the munitions development place as a handy alternative when one has run out of things that go fast and bang. I'm sure that the AB stood for "Alternative Bombs" instead of "Alternative Bread".
They sure as hell weren't intended to be eaten.
