Yes, yes I know it's juvenile but....
Ditty's Irish oatmeal biscuits are the perfect accompaniment to good Irish cheeses and are served in all the best restaurants, and some rubbish ones too.
They are also a never ending source of amusement for waiters who really should know better. Take tonight for example.
"Now madam, your cheeseboard" said the charming and jovial waiter as he set down a beautiful looking board of cheese, grapes and the aforementioned oatmeal biscuits.
"Oh are these my Ditty's?" asked the very lovely American lady.
"They certainly are." Replied the waiter sidestepping the obvious joke.
Lifting one of the biscuits and turning to her husband she asked, "Hey Brian, do you wanna bite of my Ditty's?"
It was all the waiter could do not to burst out laughing right there and then......

Mmmm dittys.
Depending on how long it's been since I've had one I either have a gentle nibble or gobble them up.
My readers got me hooked on HobNobs and now you're luring me with Ditty's.
You're a temptress, Manuel.
Oh hello, Maxi.
Ditty?
Waiter, my Ditty's are soggy.
Waiter, there's a fly in my Ditty's.
Waiter, that wasn't enough, may I have an extra helping of Ditty's.
The mixed use of apostrophes is actually killing me.
Doo ah diddy?
What's so funny about a cookie/biscuit called Dittys?!?

Luckily my friends from Belfast are here visiting in South Florida so I got the chance to stupidly ask them the meaning.
Great fun.
