If you need to BB, you can buy her back with a bunch of carnations... whoops, I mean a bunch of coronations, in crimson lake and blue :wink:

P.S, don't forget the extra expensive coaches either and run them around your layout for weeks, just for her 8)

Nah, it'll just take a tin of Turkish Delight (or two) (or three) (or..... you get the message :lol: ).

Failing that, Pukka Pie and chips out of the paper :mrgreen:

Ay up!

The only worse insult to Mrs BB than calling her a Yorkie is to cll her a Brummie.

She's a Black Country Wench and Proud of it!

Currently negotiating bulk purchase deal for tins of Turkish Delight.....

If you can manage to hide the wallet in a sealed box for a few minutes, you might like to study this page -

http://www.chocolatebuttons.co.uk/retro ... light.html

You can get them in sizes of up to 3kg which I think is almost 7lbs in real weight terms.

Surely that should be enough to satisfy event the most rampant of appetites?

Hmmmm im due to take up a new post in the Black Country, i certainly will not be repeating the lunch time experiment of consuming faggots, Pukka pies sounds a much better option.
