Yorkie

[Bazile]

Are Yorkies still not for girls ?

[Hopkirk]

They can have them as long as we can eat flakes surrounded by flowers.

Too hard and chunky for me ! Not sure I can be classed as a 'girl' though at my age !

[AuntPollyGrey]

Depends if they still have all thier own teeth ;-)

[Bazile]

I only asked because the last time I bought a Yorkie - which was donkeys ago - it said on the back ' not for girls '

[jakep]

How outrageous, I may have to decide to be offended!!

[Mozz71]

Great bit of reverse psychology advertising that.

[Hopkirk]

If I remember correctly you have to be an HGV driver to eat a Yorkie.

>>> Are Yorkies still not for girls ?

Not, it seems, since 2012:

When my brother and I were kids my mum used to bring us home sweets on a Friday. She used to buy a Yorkie for the dog - it didn't last very long. Mum used to make him chew it - even though he had already swallowed it whole.

For a moment I was wondering if you meant when playing cricket and a yorkie ball is bowled, then I thought you may have been referring to a breed of dogs.

I must be careful, I could be barred from AB for such imaginations. :-)

Hans.

That's a Yorker, Hans. Not a Yorkie. Yes, Yorkers are definitely for girls.

[lady-janine]

But what about female HGV drivers? are they banned from eating Yorkies?

[pixie374]

I actually haven't bought one since they put that on lol. I just thought... fine!

[Bazile]

Does it still say that,
on the back of the wrapper ?

[pixie374]

No idea... I went for kitkats instead. Oddly, two of my friends also said the same thing- I wonder how many customers they lost, by just being a bit daft :-)
