Is it me, or is the York Polo packet considerably larger than the Indonesian Polo packet? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-11171603 |

odd - looks about twice the size, yet the mints themselves on the plate don't look any different |

When you add them all up (say 1 1/2 packs of the cheaper ones = 1 York version) it's basically the same as a 'Buy 2 get one free' of the York version.

But the report is misleading. Definitely not the best example of investigative journalism I've ever seen. I've just noticed that I'm saying "Definitely" a lot lately. |

I've studied the evidence again and the York packet deffo seems to be blessed with greater girth as well as length |

Any chance you'd teach Tony how to use his camera next time he calls for a visit? He's very nearly got it, so shouldn't take long.
