Un-advertising

As displayed by the makers of Cadbury's Twirl, and seen at bus stops in the city...

Another one used is "Doesn't mint chocolate just remind you of Nan's cupboard?"

According to Cadbury's website, the supply of this limited edition, launched at the start of May, has "already gone", which means you'll probably find the shelves stacked with it.

If it's Cadburys it probably tastes disgusting now.
I once had a whim and I had to obey it
To buy a French Horn in a second-hand shop;
I polished it up and I started to play it
In spite of the neighbours who begged me to stop.

It was that 1 lire bottle of creme-de-menthe you drank behind the NAFFI as a dare by your squaddy mates that eventually put you off the taste.

They've messed with the Flake - apparently they're breaking when ice cream sellers make 99's!
