The first person to correctly identify the subtly contrasting central inlay material in this Titanium band will win the grand prize of one sticky toffee found down the side of my settee last night - plus an extra bonus prize of a bowl of fallout popcorn from the same settee for telling me who supplied it.

See I pop off to do my paperwork and I loose out on my sticky toffee.
Never mind hubby has a sweet shop so I'll grab a "Merry Maid" from one of his jars..... :D

Opps just thought about some of the "minds" on the forum. A "Merry Maid" is a particularly delicious chocolate coverred toffee!

Ah, what memories. I haven't had a Merry Maid in years. In fact the last time I did there was no chance of the name being misconstrued!

OK - a twist on the sticky toffee prize competition. I've found another toffee so the person that guesses the nearest weight of a Plain dome court Titanium ring, 7mm wide, 2.5mm wall thickness that is on my desk wins it.

Who's first?

MuranoSilver

The ring or the Toffee? -
I'm not falling for your spurious Toffee enticements again! :mwahaha:
