Order online? Might be a bit spendy, but I'm sure you could get them.

Hmmm...not sure how fresh (or rather, un-squashed!) they'd be, but there's a bag of Dove caramel going on ebay;

Lot's of 'strawberry & chocolate weekend breaks' (which sound rather good!) but alas, no joy so far.....


Is this an impossible task?

They were a box of assorted chocs and candies around in the 70's.

I admit defeat.


All I'm coming up with are weekend breaks for elderly chocolate lovers!

I've seen both recently (in my house). Is Dove not just the European name for Galaxy? So I am told.

Lou, I'm going to try really hard to download you a picture of Weekend but don't hold your breath too long - I'm no techno talent. Will have to get my son/daughter to help.
