    Thanks saveapenny, unfortunately they will only go on a package deal (I know, why have they asked me, who refuses to do a package!). I even know someone who would do the transfer for them, but they have fallen into the old fashioned package security spell! x

    Forgot about the chocolate! OK, I didn't forget, I ate it ... will Haribo's do?!! x
    Gone ... or have I?
