You started a trend Mr Filo, sir, with your chuppa, chups.
My kids and the staff were soo impressed with your gifts, I decided to take a couple of the big industrial bags of them with me to Sumatra in November past.
Every time I stopped to buy fruit, Aqua, or whatever, and at any little homestay, I handed them out liberally to all and sundry. It reminded me of that Bruce Willis (?) movie "Pay it Forward".
Anyway, they went down brilliantly with the kids and adults alike, most of whom are subsistence farmers and therefore seldom have the extra cash to treat themselves to something as decadent as candy, and I have multitudes of new friends.
Thanks a heap, FB
