  • @WinterWarrior I like Elly Griffiths, I've read a few - they are crime but the archaeological element gives some mystery to them too.  I like crime drama so long as it isn't gruesome!

    I've always had salted popcorn, never even heard of sweet one until I came to the UK. Shortly after starting work here, my company had a gathering in a cinema/theatre. We were all given popcorn bags to snack on while the CEO and other boring people updated us on the company's progress. That first bite if sweet popcorn was such a shock, I almost spit it out. Still can't have it, I'm too used to salted one I guess, but I will look for that Kitkat!

    That made me laugh. It takes more than popcorn to listen to those kind of boring people 🤣 All I can ever think about is how much they are being paid 😖

    Good morning and happy Sunday 🍫☕️🧁
    no sun today, but there will be a dog drive and then some pottering about. I’m not sure what!
    I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday 🧁🍫☕️📚

  • Morning all
    I haven't had a chunky kitkat of any description yet, would def try one with popcorn.
    I have sorted out some more carp in my room and just binned about 20 old pairs of tights, so much stuff sigh
    The sun is shining here but I have work to do, hoping to get a bike ride in later :)

    I love popcorn but I think I’d feel ripped off if it’s in a KitKat as it’s ‘too big’ and I’d be muttering about the qty of choc I’d be missing ! 

    I remember getting the hot butter poured over popcorn at the cinema - the health police wouldn’t allow it now
