Some biscuits were handed out at work. They were the emergency rations that go out of date at the end of the year. After that they can’t be handed out so the staff were allowed to eat them rather than let them go to waste.

I’m not completely sure how many biscuits there were but I’m guessing not that many. It makes you wonder how long the school was supposed to survive on said biscuits. I’m guessing not long.

There were okay but, as you would expect, weren’t in the same league as some of the other confectionery that appears on these pages. They were somewhat harder than normal biscuits; a bit like “the ship’s biscuits” only without any weavels.
