Their chocolate eclairs aren't what they used to be. :sigh: The chocolate topping is too sweet and sauce-like - it used to be thick, hard and chocolaty...(and if anyone is reading that last bit out of context, you have a dirty mind)

Calm down Ali, calm down. Here's something[^] to sooth you. Just add more.
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett
Oooohhh .... yummy! :-D I want one! Now! ... I think some baking might be in order at the weekend! :thumbsup:

I am not getting into posting foodstuffs again. The last time I did that (my girlfriend was working in at CERN and complaining about the absence of jammy doughnuts) it did not work out well. Foodstuffs with a wet center do not travel well through the post, and can result in Official Questions being asked about red fluids dripping from packages... :sigh:

No, but it could be a work career. Personally I prefer to spend time doing other things too, like eating a nice meal, travelling, making love. Preferably all three together as it happens. Then there is extramural interests, hobbies, clubs, etc There is so much more to life than work.
