What Choc Did You Get?
« on: December 26, 2005, 11:33:40 am »

Well I've just done a quick survey - one large tin of Quality Street, one box of Celebrations, one box of Heroes, one bag of Lindor, one huge slab of CDM, one box of Toblerone One By One, one box of Guylian Opus, and a huge box of Thorntons Mint Selection.


To say nothing of all the stuff we've got at work!


The diet is not looking good......

I got a box of Mingles (my Nan the legendary choc-hoarder bought ten boxes this year), a box of Pizazz, a box of Toblerone One by One and a Thorntons Toffee Truffle Egg (my mom thinks it's Easter!) Also munched my way through half a tin of Quality Street yesterday, the same amount of Roses at work on Friday, and we haven't even opened all the choc my mom and sister have had!

Me...  I broke with tradition... usually get a tin of Quality street and celebrations.... somehow this year blow out and ended up with just a box or twilights... Exactly how does that work???!

One box of lindor, two boxes thorntons, 2 boxes maltesers, one choc orange, one box dairy box, one box quality street, 4 boxes roses and as for alcohol well one bottle malibu, two bottles baileys, one bottle vodka and nine bottles of wine. I don't even drink at home so i will give the bottles away as birthday pressies. That's what i call recycling presents.

i got 2 boxes of green and black chocs, 1 from my mother in law and 1 from my sister in law, only thing was they had opened them and tried one of each flavour before wrapping them up !!!  the clues where all there.... no sellophane wrapping , a lid that did not shut properly and a space in each flavour compartment lol ( bit of a give away that one lol )   think i will get them a box of thorntons each for their birthdays  and do a bit of quality control myself.......just a little bite out of each choc should do it !!!! lol

Hmm, not sure I can remember everything but I'll have a go:


Numerous boxes of choccie biccies, a toblerone, 4 small bars of fairtrade choccie, a box of thorntons, a bag of fairtrade chocolate coins, some chocolate cats (just weird), a chocolate computer and mouse (not life size sadly), a chocolate orange, a mint chocolate orange, some left over pick and mix (wife was wrapping it into some presents :-) ,some quality street from work (although we've got a tub of miniature heroes for when we get back).


I think thats all but I'll probably find more when I go back downstairs
