Anyone remember the snow flakes? White chocolate ones? Yum.
Is that the one Anthea Turner was slated for, after advertising it as part of her TV mag wedding photos?

I don’t suppose me telling you that as a young impressionable teenager in my first (of 2) shop jobs I had, I had Norman Wisdom on the phone one day for a good half hour getting me scurrying around the sports shop I was working in looking for frankly ridiculous things we didn’t stock, would help my cause to come up and sell (eat) all your chocolate?

Nope. You need to to know your Tunnocks Tea Cakes from your Caramel Wafers and your Islay from your Speyside round here.
