    You just reminded me of those cadburys snaps that were out a while ago. Just like a box of chocolate pringles, yummy.

    In the latter years, yes. It was more cartoons for girls with speech bubbles to tell the stories, some of which were ongoing. All about growing up, harnessing your talents, finding true friendship, being confident. Boys were only a backdrop really.

    bars that are just pure chocolate like wispas, twirls etc are for me. when you dip them in tea and then lick the melted chocolate, yummy!

    The cheap pralines that are shaped like shellfish that you get in Lidl. €2 or something for a box. How so cheap? For such deliciousness?

    What makes a good chocolate bar? Chocolate - or, to be specific, a high cocoa content. Typical milk chocolate is in the 20-30% range, dark chocolate in the 40-50% range, but that's not enough for me. Lindt 70% is a good place to start, they make an 85% bar too, but I'm determined to find their Excellence 99% bar somewhere. :eek:

    I'll let you know - they're buried in the attic. My mam has Judy and Bunty annuals dating back to the 1960s.

    Hmm...I'd imagine ebay, everything's on there. I didn't buy it, my weekly pocket money budget wouldn't stretch to cover that :)
