Today, at work, we had a new client referred to our team, a Mr Maltezer. Due to a lack of information about him, it was decided to put his case on hold.
It was at this point i said 'it was never wise to hold a Maltezer.'
Barely a snigger from my colleagues. Is humour wasted at work?

There's humour in my office, but it helps that everyone is left wing, well those who have an opinion. There's lots of ranting about the state of things too.
Did they not get it? Never held one, had it melt in their hand, I guess?

What's not to like about them? They're covered in chocolate!

You definitely got less for your pocket mone with maltesers. I chose polos & curly wurly. I think they were 8p & 10p.
