Well……….
……. it would be rude not to avail ourselves of a finger of fudge or two in support of such a wonderful day wouldn’t it?
When we looked in our cupboard………..
…….. we already had more than an ample supply of the aforesaid fingers of fudge, as they are young master Bertie’s treat of choice on a Nigel school run day.
However …….. we might still pop up to Gummy Gum Drops ……
……. our Evesham confectionary purveyors of choice …….
…… and put our already full loyalty card towards a selection of pieces from their excellent range of handmade fudge which are made on the premises. Super nom, nom, nom!
And, for Mr D, who probably can't get fudge of any kind in sultry and far away, romantic Mexico ......a trip down memory lane ........
What are we like?

You are correct - no fudge round here, I'm afraid. Mum, the advert put a big grin on my face - I knew exactly what was going to happen, and I remembered the look on the other boy's face, too.
P.S. 16th June is also Bloomsday, in honour of the writer James Joyce. It is a celebration of his life, and the date is when the whole of his book, Ulysses, is set. It is, by far, the most demanding book that I have read. The first chapters are easy, but then it hits you. I found his book, Dubliners, a far easier read.
That is definitely a blast from the past! Enjoy your fudge.

Oh my those adverts took me back - but I have to say - Thorntons used to sell fudge with walnuts in - now that has and always will be my favourite fudge. Thorntons don't seem to sell it now which is a pity. It is quite difficult to find anywhere else. JantheFan x
Mr D - I am aware of both Ulysses, Dubliners and of course Mr Joyce himself but I'm afraid I haven't read either of the books you mention. Interesting your bit of information is though!
