Tis The Season .......

With summer and its hotter days and balmy evenings very much on the horizon, Darrell's mind has naturally turned to the replenishment of our freezer, in particular our fast freeze, ice cream section where we tend to store such items.


For everyone who knows us, it goes without saying that during the aforementioned summer months we are rarely without a Nobbly Bobbly for our afternoon or evenings delectation, and at half price at Iceland, perhaps now was an opportune moment to stock up ........


...... not wishing to be found wanting in the Nobbly Bobbly department should a urgent craving rear it's not so ugly head! 


However, we will admit to being strangers to a Biscoff lolly. Darrell always says the name always makes him think of using it as a non sweary, swear word, something along the lines of "Oh just biscoff!" ....... so I have a spooky sort of feeling that we'll also be finding a pack in the freezer, if only for the comedic value!


As for the ever increasing range of Magnums, I've told Darrell he has carte blanche  as far as filling his basket is concerned. Well, it would be rude not to, especially after all the effort the lovely Magnum people have put into our indulgent pleasures, especially with romantic names like Euphoria (winning Swedish entry of the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest, sung by Loreen), what are we like?

Great. I don't know Nobbly Bobbly and Biscoff, but I do like a Magnum, especially with almonds. We have Magnums in Mexico, but they are made by Holanda, not Walls.

The points below are before the time of youngsters like Mum and JtF. They are far too young to know about them:

Whenever I see a Magnum, I think of Tom Selleck and his moustache. Supposedly, Selleck insured his iconic mustache for $3 million in the 1970s.

Quiz question - who famously insured her legs for $1 million?
