I was in Hope and Greenwood yesterday afternoon:


An attractive girl, perhaps in her late 20s came in with a girlfriend and spotted a bar of "*******" chocolate.

I personally have never even heard of "*******" chocolate, I can't even remember its name, but they seem very impressed with it. it was most likely very expensive.

Girls says to friend - "oh look they have "*******" chocolate!".

Girlfriend says "whaooo!"

Girl 1 starts stroking the bar of chocolate. She looked like she really wanted this chocolate, real bad.


She then dragged herself away from the chocolate and bought a more modest purchase, a small bag of dolly mixtures. On the way out she stopped to stroke the bar of chocolate again, before leaving.


What is it with girls and chocolate?

Annasfield, I get the gist of your post, even though I like chocolate and eat my fair share (Twirl anyone?) I don't quite go into the raptures that some do.


Then you spoil it by mentioning crisps. Crisps rather than chocolate? Have you gone cocoa?

Citizen, I'm with you on Twirls!


I had a friend in my old job, and she genuinely had a thing for chocolate. She was going through some really horrible stuff in her life, and where I probably would've turned to drink, she turne to chocolate, and it genuinely seemed to make her feel better. weird!

You will NEVER understand.




Probably not. I admit it, I don't understand it. I watched Nigella last night and it confirmed my suspicions that there is some sort of drug/chemical reaction that you girls get from cocoa that just does not work for men. There is something of the unknown about it.

Nigella's friend comes round - very upset - unknown man has no doubt mistreated her - Nigella plops lots of homemade chocolatty things in front of her - all is well - everyone is happy again - bad man is forgotton.

Brendan I have a sneak suspicion that we may have been seperated at birth.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
