Hovis digestives are still around but not that easy to find - Tesco has them tho.

Absolutely lovely with cheese. I can't even find them in our local Morrisons now!

A slightly different take --

can you remember the small hovis loaves, about 2 1/2 inches long which bakeries used to produce? They used to cost about one old penny.

I'm just ancient!!

Then that makes me ancient as well pinus!! The first time I had these was at the Ideal Home Exhibition in the 50's. It seemed so special to have your own tiny Hovis loaf.

I bought some havis biscuits in Tescos last week but prior to that, they not had them in for ages. Delicious with cheese I agree. We used to get the little Hovis loaves on our way home from school,. Yummy

It was rare for my brother and me to have more than a few crumbs left by the time we got back from the shop.
