Biglorryblog's man 'North 'o' the Border' John Henderson has sent me this curiosity and message: "Hi Brian, No it's nothing to do with flying, just a rather tasty treat I recently purchased from a very smart food shop in Stonehaven. They say that more chocolate is sold during a recession/credit crunch, so to honour the trend I've recently been buying a fair share on my travels! (any excuse!) As well as having a truly eye catching wrapper, this milk hazelnut bar was just delicious and its made by a firm called Starbrook. Check out www.starbrook-airlines.com, their retro artwork is almost as good as the chocolate! Cheers for now, John....and while I'm on the subject of trucks and chocolate, does anyone have a photo of the original DAF 2800 used in the first Yorkie advert?"
Well can anyone help John with this?

Having selective memory (caused by eating too many chocolate bars) I tend to recall the Scammell S24 (or was it a Leyland Landtrain)in the early TV adverts which brings back most memories of a Yorkie Bar. Either way, the bars are great - even better than chunky Kit Kats.
