It's not just my lack of enthusiasm for chocolate that makes me feel a little queasy...

It’s an interesting juggling act; once the big day is over and normal labelling is resumed, it’s going to be easy to spot (and reject) the older food products on the shelves. I predict that a lot of cut-price stickers will be needed,
One of the oddest tie-ins has to be the many stores (Sainsbury’s included) selling coronation pyjamas for the whole family - I suppose, with the service beginning at 11am, it would be a big ask these days for everyone to be dressed in time to watch the coverage. I wonder how this would have looked to my great-aunts, who always insisted on everyone in the room standing smartly to attention whenever the national anthem was played during a radio or television programme.
I've heard of chocolate soldiers, so I suppose a chocolate king is appropriate.

Heh! Though I love a yellow sticker, think I'll pass on a lot of these...

Indeed!
