The post-Christmas stock of chocolate boxes and biscuit tins still hasn’t been demolished (although we’re doing our best). It led to a bit of an argument over the weekend between two staffers who will remain anonymous. One decided to go rummaging in the second layer of the Milk Tray for her favourite (a Strawberry Kiss), while the other looked on in disdain.
Was he right? Was she committing a cardinal sin? Should she have selected from the first tray of deliciousness?
