Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.

Any dark chocolate, and i would say, "you know that massive bar of dark chocolate in the village shop, well that would look wonderful sitting on my coffee table. 
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

For my money, you cant beat dark chocolate with lavender in. Absolutley scrummy, although I admit it's an acquired taste. And a nice big box of Thorntons or Lily O'Brians and any lady will be totally yours gentlemen and I use the term "gentelmen" loosly here 
I find that the direct approach is better. Tell them what you want or, better still, go and buy it yourself then get them to hand the cash over

I'm with Tony. Dark chocolate with chili or ginger is my favourite, but I enjoy anything with hard centres or liquor in them, especially dark chocolate covered Brazil nuts.
Better stock up now. Chocolate is one of those VATable items so will be even more expensive after January 1st when the VAT rate goes up.

master chocolateirs with coconut in it. Haven't seen it in the UK for ages and used to stock up when everyone went on booze cruises to France but it also became unavailable from that route about 18 months ago so
I just keep looking, hoping ......mmmmm!

Chocolate without Turkish Delight is like a rose without scent.
