Reviews / Mr Simms Old Jamaica
« Last post by cleverdick on August 29, 2015, 04:10:07 pm »
If ever there was an opportunity missed, this is it. ::)

I've coined a name for [so-called] chocolate that's presented in clear cellophane and sold at an over-inflated price.  Tourist Trap S***e.  And in my view, that's exactly what this is.

Quite unsatisfying and full of soya lecithin, it's nothing like the Old Jamaica that most of us will know.  Even the rum flavouring is fake.  (And yet, if they'd got it right they could clean up!)

In the fullness of time I shall be experimenting (using good quality chocolate from Lidl or Aldi) with actually making a decent rum and raisin bar.  I will report back.

I know alot of people who still use the trusted PC for the internet and Gaming ( 30 years still game you!)  I do use my mobile for the internet if needing quick access but its crap, since you always end up on the mob lie version.  Tablets I dont trust either.

Joey Essex is up his own arse and needs shot, He is whats wrong with Essex.  He having a laugh about EU surly? I know he has smarter friends, If he really is that stupid there just using him.

Wilkinsons had half pick n mix sale wee while back.     IF we really wont to bitch lets talk about that nasty vile man IDS or our beloved prime mister,  HE has lied, broke alot of promise and lets not forget double OUR NATIONAL DEBT, and spend more than the last labour government in its 13 years. Somehow  only UKIP notice this point...

Lets get things moving,

Who do you believe should be the next leader?  Personnel I don't believe any should be PM but I believe corbyn should be leader to help overhaul the Labour party.  I dont trust Burnham!

Finally seems to have gone - not that it was a patch on the original.  Compare their range now with that from the '70s.  It's a sick joke.

I don't watch the Essex programme but I read an interview with him in the Radio Times just before the election. To his credit, he was TRYING to show an interest, but was hopelessly (or should I say haplessly?) short of even a basic amount of general knowledge and so could not follow the political ideas at all. For example, at one point he had been talking to Nigel Farrage and was commenting that 'he seems a nice bloke, but what's all this about Europe? We aint Europe are we? And Spain aint Europe. How can it be Europe when it's Spain? Europe's a long way away innit?

Not really eating much chocolate these days but I did notice Wilkinsons is doing Mint M&Ms for £1 a pack so I bought a few packs to put in with my children's birthday gifts (now aged 27 and 29!!).
