I got a lift to the airport from a friend and as it is insulting to offer petrol money I want to still say thank you so will be buying her some nice chocolates.

I know she likes Thornton's milk chocolate soft centres. I love dark chocolate, soft centres :love: and OH likes milk hard centres. If I was buying for you what would be your favourite?

Nah, might get some fresh ones.

If it was a box of Chocolates it would be milk chocolate with hard toffee or nutty/crunchie centres. Can't stand Thorntons or Liquers etc. to poncy for me, just good old normal chcocolate and nothing else ;)

If it was one of those GIANT bars of Cadbury's that you used to be able to buy in Woolworths it would be Milk Chocolate or Fruit and Nut, or Toblerone or Wholenut or Galaxy or Caramac or Mars bars or Twix or........:lol::lol:

I'm an any sort of person MM - thats why I hate getting chocs!! Don't know about the rest of you, but who can just eat one or two and put the box away? I certainly can't - I get to the stage where I just about make myself sick. I'm glad I don't smoke - what kind of willpower have I??

Careful MM - this may be misconstrued as a "boring housewife/househusband" conversation if SGB looks at this!!!! Now come on lets think about something intelligent to say about chocolates, e.g. do you believe that you should only be eating chocs from suppliers that are part of the Fair Trade scheme?:eyebrows::crazy:

And please support local producers by buying a chocolate called La Legalidad which I'm told is made in Tenerife. The label is a bit confusing but says it's in a place called Icod de los Vinos - wine and chocolate together there then.

Anyone been to Cadbury World, the choc tastes so much nicer fresh. At the end you get some liquid choc.
If you ask you can usually get a pass to the staff shop. The staff shop has all kinds of choc and sweets really cheap.
Wait for Marbs now as he lives near there and probably has a season ticket.

Cadbury World, yummy, no need for gps - just wind down the window, you can smell the place from about a mile away. My favourite bit (apart from the shop and cafe) has to be the chocolate taps...why oh why can they not install one in my kitchen!
