Does anyone remember these?

Despite the name, I think they were only really available in the North West.

They were sold in packs of five or six. Each one was about the size of a Wagon Wheel. It was a really thick biscuit, made from Shortcake, with sugar sprinkled on, and a thick layer of chocolate on one side.

They were discontinued in the early nineties.

Yes, I remember them. I thought they had bits of currant in but no chocolate?

Couldn't be more wrong, sir.

I must be thinking of something else.

Do you like Grantham biscuits? They sell them at the Goose fair, otherwise never see em.

I haven't had them, what are they like?

Sort of light, honeycombed and gingery and very crunchy. Lovely dunked in tea if you get a mug big enough! They're about half an inch thick.
