Nope, not home grown - a plassy one - I don't like the idea of cutting one down and I have rarely seen one survive in a pot after being in the house for a few weeks - I know people can do it, but our plassy one is yonks old and looks great!  ;D

No toffee coins or purple nut caramels left!  :'(

Did I hear the rustling of chocolate sweetie papers again ? LOL

      This thread will have to be reported to the chocolate police ;D
Alishka, Lorna, Grawrc, and the rest of the gang ;D ;D ;D

I'm not on line very often at the moment, but my puter jumps around the room
screaming blue murder when chocolate is mentioned. ;D

CHOCALATE? What's that? I am going to Tesco's tomorrow to buy four tins of Quality Street!! I will still be tempting fate, last year I had to go back again as I had eaten (with the help of Lorna Jnr and Joshua) the contents of one tin!! When Charlie was alive whatever chocs we had I would make him go through and pick out the coffee creams, can't stand anything to do with coffee. Roll on tomorrow, anyone got a padlock ;D?

I'm sure they don't fill them as full as they used to!  I to have been ordered to pick up another box to top up the tin, altho family vote has leant towards a box of Roses for a bit of variation!

Feel sick now....had 2 malt toffees and one chocolate whirl - a new flavour!
