I think my Mum has one of these at home. I've definitely seen one before.

Well I didn't get one. I wonder if they have stopped giving them out now?. I got my cocoa from Canada though, perhaps that's why.

I remember the end of the war quite vividly; remember having a day off from school and going for a picnic at Elmers Green. I don't remember a certificate like this, but I do remember the chocolate mix,which came,I thought from Canada!
