    When'd you last wrap your lips around...

    ... a mansized bar of chocolate.

    Once you go Yorky, you'll never go back!

    Just received a box of Yorkies (granted they were a bit melted, but after a couple of hours in the fridge, yummy) which I'm now enjoying. Also had a couple of packets of Munchies thrown in. Very nice. Mansized chocolate, most of you airy-fairy sorts probably wouldn't be up to the job...

    ^ The locals don't get to enjoy the Yorkies - they are NOT man enough for the job... (not even the ones Papillion plays with in soi 4)

    Sorry JesusJones, me mother sent them from Spain (I wonder if my brother sent them to her from England?) for the missus' birthday (she won't be having any!).

    Yorkies, Munchies and loads of bars of marzipan. I love marzipan chocolate (Danes do good stuff), but cannot find them here.

    I just received this care package last night.



    6 x Packs of Kettie Salt & Vinegar

    6 x Packs of McCoys Salt & Vinegar

    1 x Bottle of Medium Nando's Peri-Peri Sauce

    1 x Bottle of Hot Nando's Peri-Peri Sauce

    1lb and a bit of Sour Dummies.

    Already had a couple of bags of the McCoy's. It was like a party in my mouth and everyone was invited.

    This is the first time I've had Nando's hot sauce. Cant wait to cook something up with that.

    You tryin to guzump my Yorkies FP!!!

    How many sour dummies would swap for a Yorkie? I'd guess at 20-25. Yorkie is king of the road, everyone knows that. Yours is a good package, and chocolate doesn't travel well (the pics would be shameful), but mine tastes goooooood.

    You can get Kettle Chips at Foodland, expensive though. Haven't seen McCoys though, they'd be nice.

    I'll consider it, but I've still got a Terry's Chocolate Orange in the freezer.

    That was only half of it. Had to split it 50/50 with a mate. I was tempted to yoink the 2 hot sauces and give him the 2 mediums but I wasn't that cruel.

    I've only just heard of this stuff. Apparently Nando's only opened after I left the u.k.

    cadburys cream eggs, I just had to mention them.

    I bought some walkers salt and vinegar crisps a year or so ago, took me all day to eat them as the flavour was just too strong, never used to buy them in the UK as i considered them a bit bland and boring.

    Cadburys Fruit and Nut.

    The kilo bar. Straight out of the freezer.

    Never, never buy it.

    Down the lot in one session.

    Beautiful stuff.

    With a couple of bottle of good Cab Sav.

    Hangover city, but what a delight.

    Sounds very good, mate.

    The Thais don't like the fruit and nut bars do they; it's all nut and no fruit. I get the Ritta Sport fruit and nut mind, that's nice. Sometimes Foodland has some decent swiss bars of fruit and nut around Xmas.

    Yeah, the ma did well. Only 1 ToffCrisp mind. Three Yorkies and Munchies, mostly the Marzipan bars cause they're my favourites.

    She just sends this crap from time to time, no warning, just a nice surprise when I get home from work. Lovely.

    Normal post. She's been doing it for years; nothing gone amiss; one problem with customs trying to overcharge (local office at Hualongpong), that's all. Any problems are at the Spanish end; international post to Bangkok is very good. When I order of ebay, stuff sometimes arrives from the UK within 48 hours, normal post, bloody good...

    That what I was thinking, they have them in every 7-11. 24b for a small one, and only 27b for a big one.

    Bloody tasty. I get a load of those x-mas selection boxes off the mother twice every year. Once at x-mas, and again about a month later when they've all been reduced to less than 1/2 the price. Bless 'er.

    The lot go straight into the freezer before gradually going on to the spare tyre.

    Fat git!

    You'd probably be better off passing the surplus my way - think of your diet and exercise regime...
