    Maybe so @pete except that it pandered to his ego and that's bad. A joke that backfired.

      Just seems strange to me, was it a joke or not, I'd check that medal was not chocolate with a foil covering, before accepting it.:biggrin:

        I'd accept it if it was chocolate. :thumbsup:

        I've only ever been to one football match, Leyton Orient, where an uncle took me when I was nine to watch his favourite team. Hated it!

          Beware @shiney! If it's US chocolate it has even less cocoa in it than the UK makes that have recently been demoted from being called chocolate because they have too low a percentage of cocoa.

          Milka used to be good quality but they're busy in Russia now so off my shopping list and the same USA parent company owns Cadbury's, Côte d'Or (major disappointment for us cos we thought it was still Belgian), Toblerone and more.

            I never eat American 'false' chocolate :rolleyespink: as I'm fussy about my chocolate. I only eat 70% or more chocolate and Mrs Shiney only eats 100%. Although I have, more or less, given up eating chocolate and crisps in an effort to lose weight. I've lost a stone in six months by stopping snacking 'naughties'. :)
