In a farm house, it is essential that the tins are filled with yummy things that go well with cups of tea. These cookies are delicious, and go well with tea. They also remind me of gran, she used to say that the oats and raisins made them healthy- which meant I was allowed two. I have since found this to be just something Grandmas say when they want to make an excuse for allowing small children to eat more than one biscuit.... got to love gran xxx
