Orange Bourneville?!?!?! I will hunt this down. It's one of the giant size bars. I forget if I found it in Asdaland or Sainsburgeries. -Ralph |

This is an outrage in itself.
Not the battering, the fact that Quality Street, a lifelong favourite, have got rid of the brown oblong toffee one. My FAVOURITE. They have been replaced with more soft ones, meaning the balance of hard to soft in a Quality Street tin is now heavily weighted towards soft.
It's not good. Not good at all.

Quality Street (and the size of the tins) has been on the slide for a few years now.

It's too much change. I just can't cope with it. QS have always been my favourite wrapped sweet, but my choices are dwindling. I will cling to my toffee finger.
And lament the passing of the toffee deluxe.

Oh dear oh dear. I really must advise against that, as Hub Chief Medical Officer. I mean, they're probably radioactive by now. They'd turn Bogatan glowy.

The question is how many packets? Packet of ten over two evenings. A couple of them were dismantled by the book, with the chocolate ring eaten last. Martin |

There is a book for dismantling Jaffa Cakes? Does it include diagrams?

Ten over two evenings... Hmm, very right and proper. Five a night I hope.
This reminds me of my current rationing of a box of 25 Quality Street. I have three on a Sunday afternoon with coffee.
I was looking forward to a bonus fourth sweet on the last weekend, but some bugger has scoffed one because my currently remaining total is divisible exactly by three. When questioned, the presumably guilty party did not believe I had counted all the sweets in the box.
All these years and she still doesn't know me.

I need to sing the praises of the potted Ham that Liz made yesterday - really nice!

Finally diced, almost like a pate, tiny bit of spice thrown in, layer of butter on the top. YUM

So you take some ham but put it in a pot then take it out the pot to eat? That sounds very strange!

Take some ham, do nice things to it, put it in the pot, eat the even yummier Ham.

I just don't get it. If Burns wants ham he eats ham! He does not put it in a pot which he must empty anyway to get at his ham! This makes no sense! This is the Chewbacca defence!
