My fault for not doing enough promo really - that and yes, everybody is either facebooking, twittering or commenting on blog posts.
Finding that there's more I can now do via my phone that'll help me get some more updates, and I'm working on changing my hosting which should also provide some new opportunities.
Thanks for hanging in there :)

I'm sure no one would be interested in them.  It's not like it's a new chocolate bar or anything ;)

Sorry, realised what it was. I had to change some permissions because spam was getting into the site (in the folders). Turns out the provider I'm using doesn't allow fine grained permissions, so blocking one thing blocked everything from being uploaded.
I'm working on moving hosting to my home, then I'll be able to sort it out. I'm sorry if it means we're missing something amazing.  ;)

Removed a bunch of old attachments - not sure if that will help or not.

Guess it could be out of space - I'll have a walk through the settings and see if I can work it out.

I've got plenty of choc I could send you, trouble is I need to scan it first and that's quite difficult with the little one needing attention :)

Here - of course ;)   - was slightly scared off by the dead poets society reference though :P

scary, as I'm slightly further along and a reasonable height above sea level it is a lot less bad for me - though the back garden is a bit of a lake/swamp (though I'm told it used to be watercress beds a long time ago).
winds were quite impressive today too.
I wonder if it would have been better/worse if we'd had the 'polar vortex' instead.

I don't think I've ever had an opportunity to try Dutch chocolate. Does it have any distinctive characteristics?

Thank you, and I hope you all had a good Christmas too. Wishing you a very happy New year! (Remember you're not allowed to give up choc in any resolutions)

coconut lindor gets my vote (and probably the wife's). Though I think honourable mentions for pebbles (much better than I thought it would be) and CDM winter wonderland, which I thought would be boring but was actually pretty good (if overly sweet, but that's inevitable with cadbury, nestle and mars products).

General / Re: Duc d'O Truffles...what are your thoughts?

I seem to recall they tasted alright though. They're not mega posh chocs, but then they're not mega expensive either.

Price is going up/size going down because of inflation and (to a certain extent) because of the high price of cocoa, I agree though some products are getting way too sweet (and I have a really sweet tooth). Conversely there are also more bitter products on the market to capitalise on 'posh' chocolate.

Latest new 'thing' - I've put a different mod on for logging or registering via social networks. It supports quite a few (just got problems getting google and yahoo to work at present). It'd be great if someone could try it out and see if it works.
Thanks.

Thanks for the support. I'm getting there, with a little help from my son (not really, he's only 5 months - but he is lying on me) - guess he would be choccieboy :)
I've put a new antispam tool on, so hopefully that'll help when I re-enable registrations.
