    Cheers, Robert, I don't mind if I do... I'm a bit partial to homemade chocolates.

    hehe, I've just been able to authorise expensing chocolates for my customers :) I'm planning on hitting up Hotel Chocolat on the weekend.......just little thank you's for the admin staff of my client base who help me get my job done by getting the powers that be to get in their orders etc. :) I'm thoroughly looking forward to the instore sampling and making a ridiculously huge purchase - but thinking on it - will need to make the purchase only what I can get out in one week or it'll risk getting eaten/spoiled/broken (then eaten of course).
    Capney - do you make your own chocolates often? I often make the 'mock' chocolate bar type things - choc bars from Australia and Canada that I can't get here - we are now used to the 'mock' recipes, that we probably wouldn't like the 'real' thing!

    Jazmine - what does chocolate have to do with losing weight?????? I was told on the highest authority that it is totally fat and calorie free.......I'm sure that's what it was......yes....that's what I was told! :)

    "I've just been able to authorise expensing chocolates for my customers"

    Rather than a piggy-amount-all-in-one-go how about a subscription to http://www.chocs.co.uk/ - they send a box once a month of things put together by skilled chocolateers. My DW applied for some once and has never cancelled the subscription since! We get a nice, unusual, box of chocolates once a month, always a good stand-in if we have folk round for supper or whatever, and a great talking point.

    If you can get me a free subscription whilst you are talking to them that would be great, ta :D
