Christmas is approaching, and on this like on the continental side of the Channel, shops are flooded with gifts, Santa Claus hats and christmas sweets.

Nick's housemate Cat was nice enough to buy him a chocolate advent calendar:

A spring of joy on first sight, the gift transformed into an object of contempt upon further inspection. Exhibit A:

Found it? It's in the centre of the picture: "25 festive milk chocolate shapes"

TWENTY - F I V E ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !*

How unfair is that?!? Every single year of their rain-swept lives, British kids (and full-grown choc addicts alike) get one piece of chocolate more than their German peers!

May they choke on their undeserved choc abundance or get fat and ugly! How!

(*Did you really just count whether that's 25 exclamation marks? You sicko!)
