Favourite chocolate or sweet?

[SteveT]

Sherbet fountains were the most fun with the kids.

We would clear everything off the table

and then have one each,

whoever left the least mess on the table

was declared the winner.

Kayli (sherbet to southerners) from the suck-shop. Bought in quarters in a paper bag. It came in bright yellow (stained your fingers a nicotine yellow) and pink.

It actually had a more crystaline structure than sherbet. Looking back it was just sugar with a sour coating.

I was introduced to this combination by a Scottish lass at an Open University summer school!

Then the other extrene chew the feet,

enjoying this jelly is such a treat.

Bite off both of the legs up to the bum,

just taste the flavour of this gum.

Nip off the arms, hands and the fingers,

oh how the taste in the mouth lingers.

The chest and bottom are all that remain,

unless you chose all boys (someone explain).

PEOPLE whose surname is Toblerone should always take along an empty 'Toblerone' chocolate box when attending interviews for office jobs. This would save your potential employer the expense of having to make a name plaque for your desk, and therefore increase your chances of getting the job.

I'm not much one for choccy but in a much failed attempt just now to cheer myself up I have just consumed a Flyte... should have gone for Areo Bubbles methinks :-(

[waynetta]

[waynetta]

Galaxy Minstrels are absolutely delicious. What's more, when joined together by a cocktail stick they would make a perfect set of dumbells for a squirrel if they were bigger. And heavier.

[ruffers]

A finger of Fudge (it's just enough)

[waynetta]

Smarties are great. And also the plastic tops from the Smartie tubes make ideal frisbees for a pet gerbil or hamster.
