Ah Ron, if only you knew how close to the mark your post is. Let's just say, I wasn't very popular with the teachers up at Holton Park (which was the secondary school when I went). They were VERY glad to see the back of me in 1974,

I know you now Lyn, you were the Cadburys Flake girl weren't you (the one with the mouth that lovingly caressed the chocolate), and you just wanted us to guess that little snippet eh? Well I was the Milky Bar Kid, so there!

How much are they in the USA Sue? Probably not available based on what you said about the Easter eggs earlier...

Well they don't sell them in regular stores, I have to order on-line from a specialized English store. One little flake cost $1.85, as does a Crunchie.

I have to admit, as much as I like chocolate, I won't pay that price. At Christmas time I can find Terry's Chocolate Orange Balls for about $3.00, and I ususally buy about six and make them last all year.

Ha! My all time favourite advert is there. I do the best impersonation of the Country Life Butter advert.

     "Ohhh, we're off down to the village fete, we go there every summer..."

Love it!

Thanks Lyn.
