We very much appreciate a shared tube of Rowntrees fruit pastilles, (pastilles is such a romantic word for a confectionary item don’t you think?) while watching our televisual programmes of choice ….
….. however we are all particularly partial to the blackcurrant ones, so when we pass them around, we always take the next one in the said tube, as is gentlemanly practice …….
…… hoping that it will be an aforementioned blackcurrant one, but inwardly sighing everso slightly if we get a green or orange one!
However, now, after a recent shopping expedition, Darrell has become our confectionary hero, as he has found that Rowntrees actually make tubes of just blackcurrant pastilles!
Well, you can imagine the reception Darrell received after this momentous discovery, as he entered our portals, holding aloft not just one tube but a pack of three!!!
Life really does keep on giving and just gets betterer and betterer ……
…….. nom, nom ,nom!!!
"Pastilles is such a romantic word for a confectionary item don’t you think?" Yes, or something medicinal.
