Shrewsbury Biscuits

I had a moment of madness yesterday, and was baking these and 7.30 in the morning. Tom was due to stay at school all day, and was not being picked up until 9pm as it was the open evening, and he was helping. I thought he and his friends would like some biscuits to keep them going. Yes, I know I am mad, but then, I think that's already obvious!
Thankfully they were quick and easy to make, and Tom thought they were really nice. They did not have much of a snap, so Paul Hollywood would not have approved, but they went down well with hungry teenagers apparently. They were pretty average, and I would give them 7.0
I think I  should say at this point, "congratulations" to Frances, who won the Bake off. I thought she thoroughly deserved it, and I loved her creativity. It was possible to have style and substance after all!
