Imagine my glee when my beloved handed me a big tasty looking Thorntons treat. I sank my teeth into it and instantly met some extremely rigid resistance. Obviously not a soft centre I thought to myself as I chomped down again. My teeth were making no impression on the object and I detected a distinctly metallic flavour.
Before my teeth splintered and blood began pouring I removed the object and examined it. Within the outer chocolate shell something glistened and shone. With my little finger I coaxed out what looked like a ring of metal. It was a ring. In fact it was a lovely gift from my sweetheart, intended to be a surprise. A surprise it was, having nearly robbed me of my pearly whites and choked me into the bargain. A good job I didn't swallow the thing whole or I would have been waiting 24 hours or so to find my present!
Bless her heart, she had given me a lovely shiny signet ring inlaid with a diamond. Thanks babe, lovely engagement present. Hopefully any presents I might receive in the future will come more traditionally wrapped. It was lovely surprise though!
