As I was drifting off to sleep last night I had a half memory of. Box of chocolates we used to have at Christmas with a mix of jelly sweets as well as chocolates in. Did I imagine this?

Weekend used to have brightly coloured ‘candies’ in amongst the chocs.

Loved the chocolate with crackly stuff in the Weekend box.

Slightly off topic but when I was about 2 years old I tried my gran's weekend chocolates by taking a bite of each and then put them back. I bought her a box of them every Christmas for yearz
