I've not spotted it yet. As long as it's chocolate, don't mind which one.

Seagullslanding · 15/12/2015 19:34

No chance of seeing it. Would love the old Milk Tray bars of chocolate that were around in the 70's

BrendaandEddie · 15/12/2015 20:02

i saw it in Woolwich
it was BRILLIANT

SilverOldie2 · 17/12/2015 12:00

Kraft the tax dodgers have turned my favourite chocolate into crap and I don't give a damn about their trucks.

Apparently, when asked why they had changed the recipe, they replied 'we haven't changed the recipe, just the ingredients' What the fuck is a recipe if not the ingredients?

Hope all the trucks break down.

TomHaverford · 17/12/2015 12:27

I saw this in woolwich too! Was so fun! I wanted it to be full of flakes- ultimate quick Christmas trifle topping!

Uzma01 · 17/12/2015 12:29

Not spotted it, but apart from copious quantities of chocolate (especially whole nut, fingers & Roses) some fab Lego toys would be good.

BeautyBoo · 17/12/2015 22:17

Haven't been able to go and see it but I'd hope it was full of bite sized tasters of all thr cadburys favourites! It would also be quite interesting if there was a bit of history about cadburys and all of the chocolate bar wrappers throughout the years!

lottietiger · 18/12/2015 14:12

Im not likely to see it as its not coming to darkest Sussex, if it did though id be at the front of the queue for more snow bites!

sue42 · 18/12/2015 19:57

Santa with lots of chocolate!

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 18/12/2015 23:33

I saw it in Woolwich on Monday. I was on the top deck of a bus at the time so couldn't see much. Looked like some kind of big snowman thing next to it?

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 18/12/2015 23:35

Ha, couple of other Woolwich posters Grin What was in it?

Justfivemoreminutesplease · 18/12/2015 23:43

Saw it parked up this afternoon in Fulford on the side of the road into York. Couldn't take a photo as I was driving but did a naff wave to the driver Blush

sofiahelin · 19/12/2015 19:56

I hope there's selection boxes inside Xmas Grin

Stuffofawesome · 19/12/2015 20:26

Hope it is full of Cash for HMRC.

AmethystMoon · 19/12/2015 20:49

Hope it's empty, no more of that hideous crap, mislabelled as chocolate. It is oily, tasteless rubbish.
Bring back the old dairy milk of the eighties.......it's okay you won't have to change the recipe, just ingredients!
But you might find your sales rocket if you make product that is, ummmm...oh yes chocolate. You know with cocoa and milk in it.min more than trace quantities.

Carrotcruncher11 · 20/12/2015 17:41

Haven't seen it and would probably chase it down if I did but it's not coming anywhere near me unfortunately - guess another reason to visit Cadbury world!

Gazelda · 20/12/2015 19:06

i haven't seen it. It doesn't seem to be planning a visit to my neck of the woods.

Were it to visit though, I'd hope it'd be full of the baubles I missed out on testing. They sound fun and I have forgotten to get any choccy decorations for the tree this year.

CremeDeSudo · 20/12/2015 19:49

I saw it in Cardiff and had a free chocolate Smile didn't go in but it was a lovely addition to the centre. I would like a lifetime supply of Twirls inside Grin

Rigbyroo · 21/12/2015 14:17

Not seen it as didn't come near here but would like it to be filled with mugs of steaming cardburys hot chocolate with chocolate fingers!

Cataline · 21/12/2015 14:43

I'm hoping to spot the truck in Newcastle tomorrow! I'd be happy if it contained lots of dairy milk - Oreo and fruit and nut versions!

RueDeWakening · 21/12/2015 15:45

I'm guessing the truck didn't make it as far out as zone 5, no sign of it round these parts today Grin

ButWaitTheresMyrrh · 22/12/2015 14:25

I haven't seen it but I would want it to be filled with mint or cappuccino Wispas because I miss them Xmas Sad

ttlshiwwya · 22/12/2015 16:17

Haven't seen it but I'm hoping it goes to one of the HMRC tax offices and is stuffed full of all the tax money they have "avoided" in recent years.

Generation1979 · 22/12/2015 18:54

I've not see it but I'd love a cadburys spira

peronel · 22/12/2015 20:20

Saw it today at Gateshead Metrocentre - imagined it was choc full of Cadbury's Dairy Milk!
