I'll be trying to update more of the 'fun' stuff soon - working on a
new chat system and a bunch of new bars to add to the review first.
Choccie.

Don't worry Choccy, I think it's great and I haven't been hanged yet.
I don't think pictures of the insides of chocolate is feasible unless you could get one of those fibreoptic cameras. But I don't see the point.

Me too. I'd like to be well hung.

Lou Lou, I'm sorry but I have to be pendantic here. The past tense of the verb to hang as in 'hang by the neck' is hanged. Hung is as in, 'I hung the picture on the wall'.
Post by: one_serious_chocoholic on November 03, 2004, 10:39:09 am
To be even more pedantic;
Hung; as the past and past participle of 'Hang'; The use of 'hanged' is somewhat preferable to that of 'hung', when reference is had to death or execution by suspension, and it is also more common.
So, actually you're not incorrect LouLou, it's just more common to say 'hanged'.

... I think a cross section of a chocolate bar was what Aveit really meant... Not played Hangman yet but i may have a go laterthats right

...this picture has now inspired me to go and buy one! I've yet to embark on sampling the 'Honeycomb' aero, I've kind of always stuck to the mint.

Check the dictionary, bounty! I don't often use 'hang', 'hung' or 'hanged' in an everyday sentence, but it says that 'hanged' is more common, but 'hung' is still correct.
I could be even more pedantic, but I won't.

Me too! I love the scene with the rabbit of Caerbannog. I haven't watched it in ages though. I think it's soon time for a chocolate-inspired movie fest...

Ok, I have to paste this song as I've had it in my head non-stop for the past two days!!!
"We're Knights of the Round Table,
We dance when ere we're able,
We do routines and chorus scenes
With footwork impeccable.
We dine well here in Camelot,
We eat ham and jam and spam a lot.
We're Knights of the Round Table,
Our show are formidable,
But many times, we're given rhymes
That are quite unsingable.
We're Opera mad in Camelot,
We sing from the diaphragm
a looooooot.
In war we're tough and able,
Quite indefatigable,
Between our quests we sequin vests,
And impersonate Clark Gable.
It's a busy life in Camelot,
....I have to push the pram a lot."

I agree about the age thing. There are, however, still pythonesque features to much of today's comedy (Trigger happy TV, Little Britain, for example). By contrast, the dead-pan delivery of The Office is another type of humour altogether and although very funny, it makes me feel really comfortable as we seem to be laughing at someone's personality disorder.
