    I'll definitely be buying chocolate calendars. I like the sound of the Aero truffle one. Thorntons are pretty good too. My youngest daughter wants the Reese's cups one. I can't stand those Kinnerton calendars - the chocolate is awful.

    Are you getting chocolate ones?

    I'll be heading to Hadleigh's Morrisons in a minute. I hope they have a good selection.

    I'll report back later.

    I was in Bruges for Christmas about 13 years ago. Before I went, I didn't realise it had so many canals.

    Cadbury's is certainly very nice. My son wants the good old Dairy Milk one.

    You are right: Ghent is fantastic. I especially love the castle and it's array of torture devices.
