I was wandering around Reading museum this afternoon. Not only does it have a surprisingly large and diverse collection – including a full replica of the Bayeux tapestry – it has a rather confusing and maze-like layout. Walk down what looks like a service corridor or fire exit and you discover a whole new collection of galleries. Anyway, it was one of these jaunts down a nondescript passage that led to my discovery near closing time of the BISCUIT WING! This is an exhibition on the once great biscuit industry of Reading. Among the items on display was a 99 year old biscuit!
At the end of the biscuit exhibit I noticed this rather alarming marketing poster for vim:
Apparently if you eat biscuits for breakfast you’ll be a hardened vim user by lunch. This also seems to imply that using vim “makes you fit and keeps you slim” which is clearly not borne out by reality. Better contact the advertising standards authority…
blodgett sometimes eats chocolate biscuits for breakfast OM NOM NOM
