- Post of the Week: #43
- Previous Winners : Feed
It’s that time of the week again. That painful time when I have to try desperately to rouse myself from my late Sunday evening torpor so I can tell the world the amazing news! Yes indeed, I am more pleased than you will ever know to be able to announce that this week’s winner of Post of the Week is…
Emz: ALLSORTS - SRS BZNS
I look down to the countertop, and he has laid out two of each sweet, one from each packet, side-by-side. “Now this one,” he says, pointing to a bobbly one, “is from the right packet. Squish it!” I squish. It is sort of squishy. “And this one,” he continues, “is from the packet you bought me, and it is MUCH SQUISHIER!” I squish it. It is a little bit more squishy. “And this one is HARD and SHAPED LIKE BERTIE BASSETT which is AS IT SHOULD BE. But the one from your packet IS JUST A TWISTY SHAPE!!!”
Our judges said:
“A hilarious tale of the minute made massive. It will be some time before I can resist laughing whenever someone uses the word ‘findings’.”
“Cute and quirky.”
“So funny, laughed at every line!”
Well done to Joseph for nominating the winner!
Your shortlister this week was the exceedingly tasty Bob, the judges were Sarah P, Kathy and Overnight Editor (who are all pretty flavoursome too), and the head judge was me, Timbo. I’m a bit past my sell by date.
Now, let’s be having a few more nominations this week please. Yes, you heard. Stop reading and get nominating all those spiffy posts maintenant, or you’ll have me on your back, and I whiff a bit.
You have been warned.

I can’t quite work out how to comment on her actual site, but as a dedicated admirer of Liquorice Allsorts - especially the coconut ones - I would love to know what her dad thinks of the Fruit Allsorts.
Somebody linked me here yesterday and I’m very flattered to have won! Thanks very much. :)
Katy - he thinks they’re an abomination, and calls them “those horrible fruit things” so as not to sully the good name of Allsorts.
Your father is a very sensible man. They are vile. And as for the Desserts ones… *shudder*.
