100 grams of brandy truffles is ?4. You get 8 chocolates.


They have Hester Blooinmarvelous visit their shop and I'm sure its a great attraction for ED.


More importantly - they have changed their midget gem supplier and now have soft ones and not the original hard ones. This dismays me greatly.


I shall withhold my custom until this matter is rectified.


Perhaps James Barber can help on this one - midget gems are a surefire vote winner.

Really Mic Mac..



I mean where else sells "not fags" eh ...?


See... and that joke snap chewing gum that I let my eldest experience 1st hand when he was 5 years old


( I swear the girls were on the verge of calling social services )


Honest he's never forgotten/ forgiven that one


Anyway it's nostalgia you're paying for


And that don't come cheap...



"ding-a-ling"


*shop door closes*




W**F


( oh & in my dream/nightmare/seri-state/ I go to get served & as the girl smiles, her black teeth fall out into a little plastic basket...)

Course I didn't think it was really YOU Mick Mac. But do let us know if you go it alone and set up a rival one.


Like I said before, if they haven't changed the top secret formula for flying saucers or sherbet lemons...I will *likely* manage to sleep tonight.


(Oh, is that the time??) ;-)

Hove actually...



Hove actually has a legendary chocolate shop called "Audreys"


( poop to you H&G, this makes your contrived weirdness seem, well "pedestrian" )


Back in the day you'd walk in there ( door dead centre of the shopfront that pinged as you opened it, plain full length "voile" curtains over the windows & a dead straight counter dead ahead of you. The place was like a set from a Coen Brothers movie, all painted in creamy buttermilk colour ) off the side street with little or no other shops near by.


I never, ever, saw anyone else in there


Anyway "ping" would go the door......


And you'd wait....for a while......& then a little longer....oh, but the smell just caught you


A slightly built woman in a fitted white almost nursie workcoat would appear, wearing whiteish cream gloves, neat dark tied back hair. Unsmiling but with a slightly inquisitive face " Can I help you" as if you were lost.


There started a wonderful ritual of discovery at Audreys. My dad used to buy his mother chocolates from there when he was a child back in the 50's



It's a bit special, make a trip next time you're down there


5 year old marrachelo cherries in liqueur encased in dark chocholate


( shoot me now, it can't get any better )



Trust me

You can get the same liquorice toffees at Sainsbos for less dosh. Think the bag is bigger too. I find them very addictive.

You're welcome. I am on a constant quest for good liquorice toffees. H&G used to run out alot and sometimes had naff ones in. I also like the aniseed balls. There is a good sweet shop in Columbia Road Market if anyone is going over there. Can't remember the name. And have you seen the website aquarterof?

Ha ha...me too! Thorntons' are excellent...but be a bit careful if you have crowns (which if, like me, you enjoy your sweets - you probably will do).

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.   
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
