Snooker joy

What makes the third session of the "888.com" World Snooker Championship so special is that you're allowed a Cornetto.

My tastes were formed in the early 80s and therefore a Cornetto is a product so stylish and expensive that it's bordering on decadence. Why, Ambassador, I'm not sure I have room for those Ferrero Rochers after my slice of Vienetta.

Mine were formed twenty or more years earlier, so I suppose it would be a Lyons Maid or a Mivvi for me. But I doubt whether either of those products exists any longer.

I stopped eating Cornettos when they changed the recipie. The original version was made with milk fat rather than vegatable fat and tasted much better.

I was never allowed Cornettos when I was little, so I was forever deprived of the elegance and sophistication that they might have brought me.

Ooh, cornettos! We have them here and they're the only ready-made ice-cream I buy, that that's only once or twice a year.

Did you knew that Simon Pegg uses them in his films? :-D
