Plus Bruxelles Extra

Yup. Still here.

Just back from a visit to one of Belgianer's famous chocolollickers factories.

Here we see the joyous staff engaged in the first part of the process - treading the cocoalate beans. Apparently they are not allowed to wash for a week before setting to the task. It adds to the rich flavour and aroma of what is revered as the world's finest chocollato, our guide said.

I bought a box for the Bosslady - And What A Truly Fine Bosslady She Is TM.

I understand the comms staff are tucking into some very fine chocolate covered coffee beans, courtesy of the Marche du Saxe in Paris's septieme arrondissement, as I type.

Yes. Those poor souls have to put up with cheapo muck-y-muck chocko while my own colleagues are currently tucking into the supremest Walloon-de-Chok-Chok at an astounding rate!

For yes! And heretofore! I am returned into the Tower of Mabledon and dispensing largesse to a degree unheard of previous-like.

So don't go boasting about your yorkie generosity - it's a meagre thing and not to be bandied about.
