Very good!!  Now that was one from the heart as I love Khalil Gibran and the Prophet is one of my favourites.

The Sweets Quiz - well, I'm stumped because (and I did google!!) some of the sites with the answers are blocked from here (we have the most considerate censors of our internet browsing here in the middle east!!!)!  I could try for a few, but I'll let someone else have a go!!!  (Yes, that's me dipping out for the night!!).

But I'll start you off with the first two: Snickers and Quality Street!!!
