I'm glad I don't live in the UK. Otherwise I gotta get those treats fast. Clever and witty, Belle. I love this limerick.

You’re in the best place Justin, they’ve cut the size of all our sweet treats, there’s hardly anything left to eat. Thank you, Belle

I don't need sweets but love them... and salty snacks too. God bless you always friend. Love, Gina
