| Quote ="Mrs Barista"You are correct, it was Rowntrees at the time. Rowntrees is still the branding for fruit flavoured sweets like Fruit Pastilles. Since it's getting near Christmas it's nearly time for Matchmakers, which are made by Nestle but branded[u "Quality Street Matchmakers" [/u now. It says on the website "MATCHMAKERS have joined the QUALITY STREET family" Why would they, unless it was some sort of shotgun wedding? When was the last time you picked out a toffee penny from a tin of Quality Street and when you unwrapped it it was actually a Matchmaker? Disturbing.'"
Never pick out the toffee pennies always go for the purple first here's the list
Purples gone by 27th dec
Golden barrels 29th dec
Golden barrel clone rip off make up number sh@te 29th dec
Triangles 30th dec
Country fudge 31st dec
Orange creme gone down my dogs gullet all of them
Coffee creme rejected by my dog (in recycle bin )
Hard toffee based ones hang around until 24th feb usually consumed by guests or I wait longer until they perish a bit and go soft

We should get married. Don't like the purple ones or the triangles, but love the toffee pennies and coffee cremes. We might fall out about the golden barrels, though. They did a malt toffee a while ago that was ace. Still don't agree with them letting Matchmakers into the Quality Street family though, they never asked me.

If we get married it would be apt to get celebrations to mark the occasion,
Here we go
Mars
Galaxy caramel
Galaxy choc
Bounty
Snickers
Then after you have done the washing up I will personally unwrap the malteaser for you and serve it to you whilst wearing rovers 83-84 strip,

| So, choccie bars.
Who does everyone think is/was the best drummer ever?
For me it's John Bonham just edging out Ginger Baker, with an honourable mention to Dave Grohl from modern times.
Anyone who says Phil Collins will receive -10 Internet Points and a Official Order Of The Gormclops certificate.

I'll give you that, marvellous musician (and was also partial to a Fry's Chocolate Creme) but I think that Bonham (who often enjoyed a Trio) took things that step further.

If all you want to do is talk about rugby, (and fair enough if you do) don't click on a link titled "O/T chocolate bars.

| Anyway, that's drummers sorted, now then, Ms. pmh is having a night out in Manchesterton this evening. I shall be watching a film, but which should it be?
Here are the choices.
a) Harry Brown, starring Sir Michael Caine. Haven't seen it, it's on Blue Ray so that's a plus.
b) The Big Lebowski, starring Jeff Bridges, John Goodman et al. Seen it before but not for a while.
c) North By Northwest, starring Cary Grant. Can't remember if I've seen it but I've been meaning to have a Hitchcock phase and this seems a good place to start.

Haven't got that one, don't think I've ever really watched that much Hitchcock, other then "The Birds" and "PSycho" obviously. Got a box set ages ago, so if I go down that route it's a choice between "North By Northwest" as said, "Strangers On A Train", "Dial M For Murder", "Stage Fright" or "I Confess".

"Rear Window" and "the 39 steps" would be my Hitchcock picks (outside of the Birds and Psycho, obviously)

I have only seen 'Dial M for Murder' and 'North by Northwest' TBH either one is a good film.

What a cultured bird you are, which is another reason for being your Nemesis. I went to Salts Mill a couple of weeks ago, and I enjoyed Salts Diner, but the rest of it was a complete mystery to me. I kid you not, there was a picture of a cereal box holding hands with a chair and it was about £80. And a book for £20 on how to make felt jewellery. Had a flick through it, strawberry felt earrings, seriously. It was like the emperor's new clothes in there. All pretentious bollox. Some paintings of them, an' all.
I don't mind Hitchcock. North by Northwest is alright. I guess I am to culture what Karl Pilkington is to global travel.

Salt's Mill is one of my favourite places, (it's not for accountants) of course you won't get art, you're an accountant, for you it has no discernible value, doesn't work on the balance sheet.
As I'm sure you're aware, it was originally run by one of our countries unsung heroes, Jonathan Silver.
Art is not about cost my dear, it's about ideas and worth.
What's Hockney displaying at the moment, are there any of his East Coast works on display?
You must at least have liked the kitchen shop, loads of old Hornsea Pottery stuff on display there.
