Unfortunately that often isn't the case with herpes and crabs. I've heard.

I have a question.
Was chatting with the missus the other day about chocolate. As you do.
And we wondered what happened to the good ol' Wispa!
I want it back.
NOW!

It's still there - it's called Cadbury Dairy Milk with bubbles.
Cadbury did a big rebranding exercise about a year ago. You can't get a Cadbury Caramel anymore - it's now Cadbury Dairy Milk with Caramel. Time Out's are now Cadbury Dairy Milk with Wafer.
Go have a look - you will see all the wrapers are the same colour purple with a different colour strip to indicate what type it is.

It's....just....not....the....same!
I'm in the mood for a Wispa and a Lionbar.

'Cadbury's Dairy Milk and Salmonella' was their latest brand choice I believe, although it wasn't very popular with the public.

My Lunchtime Double Decker is now no more. I hope it's just the shitty newsagent thats stopped selling them and that Cadburys haven't taken away another high calorie make-you-feel-sick snack

They better not have stopped selling Double Decker or I'll have a minor fit and a bit of a grumble.
What is it with Topic bars being hard to find as well? Perhaps if they weren't so tiny, more people would buy them.

They still have double deckers in the vending machine at work, but they are 42p!

That's a bit of a morbid change of subject! But tis sad indeed the chap died so young. About our age even. Crivvens! I wasn't a fan of his when he was going through his, 'I want to look like the David Beckham of Snooker' phase, but his performances and determination won me over in the end.
Back to chocolatey news: I enjoyed a Double Decker today for the princely sum of 42 pence. You don't get much change from a 50 pence piece these days.

Good job it was a bloody 4 fingered one.

But you don't get the foil anymore? The foil factor alone was worth about 12 pence in my view. Plastic wrappers are the sign of a cheaper biscuit snack.

But just thing of the health benifits! Now the newsagents can keep them longer without them going all mouldy.

They still have a foil lining inside. Actually, I don't think it's foil...but it is shiney!
Oooooh.

Plastic wrapping doesn't work for those overpriced McVities Flapjacks though - they're always found past their sell by date and on sale at half price by the counter because no mug is willing to pay a pound or whatever for a crappy flapjack a third of the size as one you get from the baker around the corner for 63 pence! (Price depends on individual bakery.) Stick 'em in foil and the whole of Birmingham will incredibly march upon your local Spar and demand one! (May not be Birmingham England, subsitute for another Birmingham if populace is too busy watching Deal or No Deal).
