Louise Frank McVities Milk Chocolate Digestive Review	I have just happened upon the letter from Keith O'Kane re using biscuits instead of crystals for healing. My partner and I were much taken by this idea and gathered a selection of biscuits in an effort to heal the pulled muscle in his shoulder. Unfortunately, as I was dangling a chocolate digestive on a piece of string over the afflicted area, the biscuit gave way and began to plummet to the ground. My partner, desperate to try to save what is his favourite biscuit, fell off the sofa and has now injured his other shoulder. Perhaps Mr Kane could write a book "The Safe Way With Biscuit Healing". Incidentally, my sister is several weeks pregnant and thought that a biscuit could be used as a pendulum to ascertain the sex of the baby. Does Mr Kane know which biscuit would be best to use? I assume that if it swings clockwise it is a boy and anti-clockwise it is a girl. If, however, it falls to the ground (see nasty incident above), then should the parents be buying both pink and blue outfits?
Audrey Starkey McVities Milk Chocolate Digestive Review	What an interesting site and nothing but pleasure! I can almost taste the biscuits as they're discussed.  What about views on dunking and more importantly, HOW to dunk properly.  I like McVIts milk chocolate digestives, two together, choccy side in, and DUNK, the choc just oozes out.  So yummy!
Maggie Schofield McVities Milk Chocolate Digestive Review	Dear Nicey Regarding the debate on 'to top or not to top' the digestive biscuit: In my family we were firm believers in the addition of toppings, which could be anything from sweet to savoury, or indeed a combination of both e.g. cheese and jam. The most bizarre reversal of this trend that I ever heard is the use of the biscuit itself as a topping. I must say that I have never tried this myself but present it for the delectation of your readers. A former colleague of mine regularly used to top cheese on toast with a chocolate digestive biscuit and to grill lightly to enable the chocolate to melt into the cheese. This person would also, and for no apparent reason, regularly imitate the call of the female ring-tailed lemur. ???
Simon Huxtable McVities Milk Chocolate Digestive Review	I'd like to thank Lisa Koester for her interesting point asking 'which way is up?' for a biscuit.  It certainly caused me to question a few of my long-held beliefs on the 'natural' order of biscuits.  This type of thinking is invaluable, and I'm sure there is role in management, or as a 'creative' in an advertising agency for such ability to 'think outside the box'.   However, if you stand a packet of Chocolate Digestives up the right way and open it at the right end, you will see that - clearly - Chocolate is the 'up' side, and the biscuit side should be on terra firma.   Thanks   Simon
George Allardice McVities Milk Chocolate Digestive Review	Dear Nicey,   I've been following the on-going debate surrounding the alleged McVities claim that 65 million packets are eaten every day in the Uk alone. I thought I'd check out the source, and headed over to the McVities website. What I found was the following statement: 'Over 71 million packets of McVitie's Chocolate Digestives are eaten in the UK each year '. This makes for a rather more conservative estimate of about 1.2 packets per person per year, not per day. Not sure if they've addressed the misinformation since the scandal broke on ncotaasd.com, or whether one of your readers has foolishly misread the data; being a data analyst by trade, however, my eagle eye was able to spot the error! Hope this clears things up,   Cheers,
	Nicey replies: Actually we worked out that they meant 65 million packs a year not 65 million a day based on their 52 biscuits a second figure, we told them and they changed their site. They then revised the figure up a few million to 71. I posted Gurbinder's message because it made me laugh.
