You'd just about get a bar of chocolate in an Elise's boot. If there was
nothing else already in there, of course.
All this talk of chocolate reminds me of a Rock 'n' Roll anecdote I read
somewhere recently. Can't be arsed to look it up again, so the details
are a bit sketchy:
Someone (?) fell into a heavy sleep on a long tour bus journey (could
have been a flight), and while he was akip another person (?) removed
all the wrappings from a half-pound bar of Cadbury's Dairy Milk, shoved
it inside the sleeper's bomber jacket and zipped it up to his neck...
