From what I saw of yours it looks just like home from home.


I hope you're not talking about that chocolate.

Good point Josephine.

Why don't they do the choc as a top deck. Do you get top deck chocolates in the rest of the world. Milk and coco chocolate together. How would they arrange the different chocolates though?

Love the entries so far! Very witty.

Next time when I come over to London - this place is on the priority list

I'm looking at that chocolate and I can't get past the thought of - how did they make the mould for this?

It's Valentine's Day, and my wife Carol has gone skiing for the weekend. Here I am a few weeks ago at Viktor Wynd's Museum of Curiosities in London. Can you supply me with a more romantic dinner companion? And perhaps some dinner to go with it?

High res is here.




Well there is a dashing fellow.

Oh... and Steve looks good too.

Steve's secret Valentine had to quickly duck to the bathroom. To find out who she is, you need to watch the video - although, there is a hint in the image as to who she could be.......

Even though I now know who she is I cannot spot the hint.

Unless it's simply the orb?

OMG, you people have been busy! Some terrific entries!

I agree with DavidMac. McDonald's food is revolting. It's an injustice to food to call it that. I cannot fathom why it is so popular.

Love the Pink Panther.

I don't want to think about how they came up with the mould for those chocolates. Oh God, please don't make me think about it.

Ant, You took my idea, not that I have any time to realize it.

Unfortunately, it looks like I will be too busy to do anything more than peak in every now and then until June at the earliest.

As one of the naive and ignorant people who actually like meat with lots of saturated fat and lots of salt and artificial colours and flavours, followed by a carbonated drink with lots of sugar. Can I register a vote in favour of McDonalds, also KFC, Burger King and all the other fast food outlets so frowned upon by The Food Police. Given the choice between a McNugget and a Chocolate Arse I’ll take the chicken every time.

I too enjoy a good meal of fast food now and again. However, there are so many outlets that have better tasting food than McDonald's. There is one here called In-N-Out Burger that uses fresh beef and fresh potatoes and real milk and ice cream in their milk shakes. They pay much higher than average and they treat their workers well. Even though they are more expensive than McDonald's and they don't have a varied menu, they are always packed inside and have a line of cars at the drive-through. Their burgers are sublime.

I am not really being Food Police. People can enjoy whatever they want. It's an entirely personal matter.

If I loved McDonalds I would almost certainly ignore the health implications and eat myself silly. The fact that I don't is not a matter of principle - I just think McDonalds is really flavourless and nasty!

So while the idea of a chocolate arsehole takes some getting used to, it actually stands a very good chance of being a whole lot tastier.

Now if that's who I think it is, shouldn't she be the other way up?
