You can buy the normal ones in a few supermarkets here but I saw a pack of 8 dark chocolate ones for the first time on Monday. This is the last one. Cost A$7 (abt. £3.60)

Was that in one of the big 2? Or an independent?

Having a pint. Got a random playlist going on Alexa, and this came on:

 

One of the most haunting sax riffs ever, yet the saxophonist was a session musician and got a one-off fee for the recording.

Foodland, same group as IGA. 
 

ETA You can usually find the milk chocolate ones in the big 2.

Yeah I buy a packet of the milk ones every so often at Coles. I'll check my local IGA closer next time.

Urban myth says it was Bob Holness off Blockbusters but he said he'd never played a note in his life.

Stuart Maconie is responsible for this in an article in the NME.

Another one which never gathered much momentum was that David Bowie invented Connect 4.

Half an hour left, then heading home. Off work the rest of the week. 

Oh, and the wife got a letter today saying she was getting a £500 bonus paid in her next salary. 

You won't see a penny of it of course, but at least you'll have another weekend of blissful peace, quiet, and furious masturbation to look forward to on the horizon when she uses it for her next weekend away.

Weekend?

She was away a fortnight last time!

Shame on you for opening it. Can't believe she would actually tell you about it.
