Hey Guys,
CL & LDC share a monthly meeting in Scotland at the Bo'ness motor museum. Tea and coffee normally served about 9.30. & Jim Grant of the LDC always brings along a packet of the said Lotus biscuits. Meetings would not be the same without them.

Cool.. Someone else has discovered them!!

Enjoy.

Yup they're here also but unfortunately only available in large "commercial" packs.
I was hoping to send some to my impoverished GB Lotus friends but it was not to be.

Not mentioned previously here, they taste good.

In the same register ,
Just a little story .
Few years before buying "OEW" , my wife & I found convenient to buy a proper kitchen ...
We had the same taste for clean & simple design , and we choose thru a dozen of samples .
Having finished with the detailling , the salesman fill the order and looked for the name of the model we picked : Lotus ! for sure a sign !
So we do have 2 Lotus'es at home , and the most expensive -at first!- wasn't "OEW"!

Hmmm, Ive been munching on these for well more than 10 years. Always had them for my Lotus club gatherings. First saw them when they were served with what was supposed to pass as lunch on a flight. The lunch as dismal, but the cookies great. I saved a wrapper and ordered a few boxes for the very next club meet.
