I'm right here where I always am Suzy. At the moment I am only a traveller of the mind. Thats a LOT of chocolate wasted!
Awww, what a shame? ... when they mentioned they had got in Specialist Cleaners I immediately thought of you turning up with a massive Spoon and an even bigger Smile on your Face! ;o>
I wonder if this beats the record for the world's largest chocolate bar. They should have contacted the Guinness Book of Records!

That'd work well for slathering along the choco road.

We used to call it the 'Wheelbarrow Race' ;o>
That's it. That'd be perfect on such a monstrous slab of chocolate.
From today’s ‘Tipping Point’:Q. Based on a novel by Rudyard Kipling, ‘Le Livre De La Jongle’ is the French title of which Disney film?’
A. The Hunchback of Notre Dame
It wasn’t her question, she buzzed in, so must have thought she was right!
I wonder sometimes if they ever get to live these things down? ;o>I mean ... we laugh, occasionally recall such things, but then we move on ... but all of their family and friends, work colleagues and neighbours, etc have probably seen this and will surely always joke about it and associate it with them ;oO
"World Pie Eating Championship bans Meat & Potato flavour over flatulence fears ... but World Pie Eating Championship purists have complained that swapping to Chicken Pies will make the competition too easy" ... ! ;o>
The World Pie Eating Championship thought it's flatulence fix for competitors would come up trumps but it has caused an almighty stink.
Organisers of the annual contest will use chicken as a filling next Tuesday over fears the traditional meat and potato makes eaters break wind. They reckon the move will help tackle climate change and stop crowds turning their noses up at the event. But purists have cried fowl on the switch, saying there is little time to adjust training regimes and chicken is too easy.
Tony Callaghan, owner of contest venue Harry’s Bar in Wigan, Greater Manchester, said: “We’re steering things away from red meat this year for health considerations and also to avoid the methane issue.” He cited “the warnings about greenhouse gasses from cattle and the controversy involving farting at major darts tournaments which recently distracted players”
But Dave Smyth, the 1992 winner, said: “Competition has been softened. There is great skill in downing a pie without spillage, crumb splatter or swallow-stall – talent developed over years. Chicken is less demanding and requires a different and less challenging technique" ...
“The introduction of chicken means lower-level weekend competitors will be mixing it with the elite. I predict not just a shock win but an unrepresentative win, possibly even by a southerner. The title must not go to Warrington or Stockport. This last-minute rule change is like swapping regulation footballs for plastic balls. Cristiano Ronaldo would not tolerate playing with plastic balls”

Is nothing sacred these days?!
LOL!!! - it's often very windy as well as a bit grim in certain places 'Oop North' but I've never once thought of blaming any Meat & Potato Pies for it?!! ;o>
Calming relaxing mood music. Something like whale song but not exactly whales...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dP2ly...
Whooah! ;o>ERRR? - Yeah?!! - very calming and relaxing mood Music, Gingerlily!
When was the last time that you asked your Dr for a Prescription Medication Review?!! ;o>
'Chicken is too easy'??WTF, How is eating a chicken pie easier than scoffing a steak one?
Sure the speed those northern fatties scoff em, it could be any 'meat' in the pastry.

Put a cork in it, GL.
hahahahahahahah!Narwhal horn makes a good corkscrew.
Lez wrote: "Not great news for the narwhal though"And how easy would it be to manoeuvre the cork out a bottle of red with a damn massive Narwhal thrashing about on the end of your opener?
And how t fk would you ever fit it in the cutlery drawer afterwards.
Madness.
You just chop off the first few inches, and let the narwhal keep the rest.
Gingerlily - The fairy at the bottom of the Christmas tree wrote: "You just chop off the first few inches, and let the narwhal keep the rest."Nah, you'd have the RSPCA down on you. Just build a lake in your garden and train the narwhal to open bottles in exchange for treats.
WoW?!! - I hope Gingerlily invites me to one of her Pool Parties! ;o>
Watch out though. Narwhals like popping lilos and they don't care what's on 'em!
That's okay ... (*whispers*) ... I do too! ;o>
I'm sorry but the pool parties are on hold for the winter, unless you want one in the rain puddle outside my front gate!
Oooh?! - lovely! I'll just go and put my Wellies on! ;o>
ARRRGGGHHH!!! ... Pink?!! ... EUWWWWW!!! ;oONo, this Winter I think that I will mostly be wearing these ...

'Is that a Sears poncho or just a regular poncho?' Frank Zappa, the song escapes me at the moment.
Indeed I think you're right. You a fan or just good with t'interweb searches?
Not what you'd call a huge fan but I do like Frank Zappa ;o>And I sometimes remember obscure stuff - and I remembered the line and that this Song referenced the end of another one which has a similar line in it? ... but I'd have to do a Google Search to find out which one it was ;o>
And Google says it was ... 'Camarillo Brillo'
Suzy - you're a duck! That explains why you like pool parties so much!
Who you calling quackers?! - LOL!!! ;o>
From a friend on Talk Classical:Three men died on Christmas Eve and were met by Saint Peter
at the pearly gates.
'In honour of this holy season' Saint Peter said, 'You must
each possess something that symbolizes Christmas to get
into heaven.'
The Englishman fumbled through his pockets and pulled out a
lighter. He flicked it on. 'It's a candle', he said.
'You may pass through the pearly gates' Saint Peter said.
The Scotsman reached into his pocket and pulled out a set
of keys. He shook them and said, 'They're bells.'
Saint Peter said 'You may pass through the pearly gates'.
The Irishman started searching desperately through his
pockets and finally pulled out a pair of women's panties.
St. Peter looked at the man with a raised eyebrow and
asked, 'And just what do those symbolize?'
Paddy replied, 'These are Carols.'
...and St. Peter said "And I must be crackers, but I'll let you in anyway."
I have, in the space of three minutes, received three emails from the Tesco Career Centre today.
The first was a reminder that I have not applied for any of the "exciting career opportunities" with Tesco for some time (gee, I wonder why not?) and that if I do not do so then they will delete my account with the Career Centre in six weeks' time.
The second email (one minute later) says "We contacted you four weeks ago to let you know we would be deleting your Tesco Career Centre Account in six weeks, as you have not logged in to your account or made any job applications recently."
The third email (again, one minute later) says "We have sent a couple of reminders recently and noticed that you still haven't logged in so we wanted to let you know that we will be removing your account tomorrow unless you log in today."
Well, that six weeks from receiving the first email have positively flown by - at this rate it'll soon be Christmas! :)

Hee, Hee, Hee!!! ;o>That'll explain the sudden appearance of long Hair and Beard then!
This reminds me of a naughty escapade when I was a child. We used to play football and other sports on a big green area. It was surrounded on all sides by houses. There was one man, we used to call him Lord Dawley, who was always telling us not to play there - we were too noisy, a ball might break something, if the ball went in his garden he wouldn't give it back etc. We got fed up with him. This was long before the internet. We got a local newspaper and answered every single advertisement, asking them to contact L. Dawley at his address. Of course we never knew the result but I imagine he must have been more than mystified if he got even half of the advertisers phoning, writing to him or arriving at his door in person.
I might just pass up on this wonderful opportunity.
I'm surprised he has any energy left in him to smile for the photograph?!! ;o>
Its clear WHY he is smiling though.
Any takers on this then? ;o> ...A Scottish eatery is serving up Ice Cream made with SPROUTS in the run up to Christmas. The controversial concoction, flavoured with peppermint, is being served up at Ice Cream Parlour, Mackie's 19.2, in Aberdeen, Scotland.

London Marylebone did the same because it, too, is incapable of getting its change machine repaired. Unfortunately, the toilets at Marylebone now resemble the one in the bookie's in Trainspotting.
