Who ate the Chocolates?

Every box of chocolates has a tale to tell. This one was offered round the assembled company yesterday evening as a post prandial accompaniment to coffee. There were present two men and two women. One person declined the choccies leaving the remaining three people to eat the eight missing from the box. Can anyone guess how these were apportioned?

Last night was judged a success by His Lordship, although the hostess made the gigantic blunder of not asking the guests if they had any food avoidances - yes, Poppy, I haven’t learned my lesson. It turned out that His Lordship wasn’t the only vegetarian, which meant in the end there was more chicken for two of us and more vegetables for the others. Must do better is written in big on my hostess report.

Our new painting was delivered by the artist herself this morning. I look forward to blipping it when it’s up on the wall. This will mean a lot of reorganisation and many more new holes in the walls.
