Do you want a slug of brandy in your snowball?

Definitely an umbrella - how about a sparkler?

Hobsons choice - that's the first time I've laughed out loud in ages,good job I'd finished my coffee - as I can't drive,it may well be a wheelbarrow job!!!!!

Now, talking of snowballs. Anyone know where i can buy them? DD is 15 and horrified at the thought of alcohol - she is quite a puritan in that respect. Now i know that this is better than some her age who drink loads of WKD or bacardi breezer but i don't want her in a year or two going for it big time and she has expressed an interest in snowballs after i was reminiscing about them with MIL.

But i can't find them. I know i could make them up but then i'd have to buy a whole bottle of advocaat only for her not to like it.

Oh, and i'm gonna have a glass of wine

because i'm worth it.

Hold on, I think we have got sparklers here somewhere - right, got them, they were under the cat!

Gherkin anyone?

ifonlyitwaseasier

yes please Mrs C - to brandy and gherkins (not both in the drink mind)

VJ - i saw on Nigel slaters show that you can cook with Advocaat, a chap cooked off apples in it for on pancakes, maybe you could have that as a fall back use

We used to get little bottles of made-up 'snowballs' from Sainsbugs for the MIL - in 4's

MY APOLOGIES MRS CHIP!!!!!!

Have just re-read my post and it sounded very rude:o What I meant was-would you like me to bring the sparklers(in the wheelbarrow:))

I fancy a snowball now, may have a look when I go on the whoopsie run shortly
