Sorry to interrupt the love fest peeps but is it time to become a Republic based on the coronation celebrations?

Who do you want to dig you out of the snow, a St Bernards or a beagle with ambition?

The political system has thrown up Prime Ministers Morrison, Abbot, Rudd, Turnbull, Keating, etc.   Shrinking violets to the man with hubris unknown.  Be Afwaid be vewy vewy Afwaid — (Elmer Fudd c. 1956)  Any mention of a recent State Premiers will cause this thread to self-combust.

Not to forget the unbelievable Bertie Beetle show bag, a perennial favourite.

Yes... queue was often immense &/or they were sold out by time you got there.

Seem to recall Bertie being a mostly 'Show' cult fan fav vs outside of there 🤔

They should get rid of picnics, nuts do not belong with chocolate just like pineapple doesn't belong on a pizza.

Pineapple pizza... culinary cardinal sin!

Bit harsh on the choco side though Azz!  

Some choc coated peanuts perhaps?  Sultanas?

Now that i know you're into pineapples, how about my late old man's fav below?  Problem with this one was if you only liked one or two sections the rest usually ended up in the bin.

The chocolate on a violet crumble sticks too firmly to the honeycomb.  The choclate on a crunchie can be nibbled off leaving the honeycomb to be wolfed down.  This is the correct way to eat a crunchie but don't let anyone watch you.  They may come over all unnecessary.

A good contribution to an important discussion.

Yes the Freddo Frog was a bigger seller back then.

While the frog could be plain chocolate or filled with different fillings, Bertie made do with some honeycomb bits in the chocolate.

Can we ever forget the White Knight bar?

I wonder if tonight’s budget will mention chocolate treats?

I'm betting that daisycutter chose his showbags based on which ones contained a phantom comic

At the risk of changing the topic, I was never into the Phantom, I was a Superman boy.

I had until now. What about the crazy maze? Or was it Krazy maze, is it still around?

Also haven't seen the pepermint crisp around. My mom used to smash it up and decorate the old Pavlova. 

I also remember the Coleman's chips showbag. Bags were all under a dollar and were good value.

Apologies Daisycutter. I had a Phantom book from the early 90s published by DC but it might have been a re-print/re-boot.

Oh no, I love pineapple flavoured lollies and the goo in the snack bar. Strawberry goo in a strawberry Freddo is da bomb!

No I'm not harsh on nuts being in chocolate, it ruins chocolate and should be made illegal with punishment of death.

Now we are talking. Chocolate bananas, yummy!

Serious question guys.

How come everytime I try and load a photo onto a DL post it says too large, when everyone else loads videos, large photos etc.

What am I doing wrong.

Could be that you've ran out of attachment allotment. You only get 39mb (well that's my limit) so you may have to delete some old attachments.

Either that or what you are attaching exceeds the total attachment size of 10mb
