Title: Axl Rose Thorntons Chocolate Bar Post by: One.In.A.Million on December 24, 2013, 03:48:18 PM I work at Birmingham Airport in the UK, at World Duty Free. And we recently had a few days where we was personalising Thorntons chocolate for passengers who purchased various luxurious Thorntons items. Seeing as Axl Rose and Guns N' Roses are my life, I couldn't resist making one for our very own Uncle Axl. :hihi:
I can say I'm the only one who owns a genuine Thorntons, Axl Rose chocolate bar. ;D Merry Christmas to Axl Rose, Guns N' Roses and fans worldwide!!!... :love: :love: :love: (http://i951.photobucket.com/albums/ad352/leegnr/097_zps14ebc074.jpg) :beer: Title: Re: Axl Rose Thorntons Chocolate Bar Post by: Mysteron on December 24, 2013, 08:32:48 PM I bet you have eaten it already :hihi:

This is something that should be kept, it's currently sitting right in the centre of my GN'R collection. :hihi: Title: Re: Axl Rose Thorntons Chocolate Bar Post by: Axl4Prez2004 on December 25, 2013, 08:19:36 AM I'm getting Chinese Democracy album release flashbacks...there appears to be a misprint! All the letters are in caps except for the x.
Did the record company force your hand to release this chocolate bar early? Is there a "Better" chocolate bar in the vault with no misprints? ;D Seriously, very cool. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! :peace: Title: Re: Axl Rose Thorntons Chocolate Bar Post by: Annie on December 25, 2013, 08:27:18 AM Very cool. Bitty Ted and I gave out little chocolate Teddy Bears by Lindt and told people to make a magical Christmas wish that would change their lives forever. If you remember in the Movie TED, Ted came to life via the power of a young boy's wish. And John's mother said that TED was a Christmas miracle like the baby Jesus! :beer:

All the letters are in caps except for the x. I only managed to get a hold of this rare piece of GN'R memorabilia after I negotiated a deal with Mr Spain and Mr Portugal. I think I ended up buying one of them a guitar to secure the item. :hihi: ;D ;) Did the record company force your hand to release this chocolate bar early?

GREG Title: Re: Axl Rose Thorntons Chocolate Bar Post by: One.In.A.Million on December 27, 2013, 01:56:32 PM Are you planning on going to any shows in 2014 Lee? GREG As many as I can Greg, same as always. Obviously I'll be hitting loads if the band tour the UK & Europe, but might travel further afield if the opportunity presents itself. Can't wait to meet great GN'R fans again, and see the best band in the world perform live. Hope to see you again soon Greg on the road... ;) Title: Re: Axl Rose Thorntons Chocolate Bar Post by: Mr. Redman on December 28, 2013, 06:47:29 PM Greg I think I met you briefly in Vegas...at least your username sounds familiar.

To have GN'R involved, where they would play a special hardcore setlist for us. One can dream, but it would be absolutely amazing let's face it. 8) :love: Title: Re: Axl Rose Thorntons Chocolate Bar Post by: wadey on December 29, 2013, 06:05:39 PM Yeah same here............... but to be fair...

Most of the guys including yourself are pretty cool and approachable but it can be a bit competitive on there sometimes. |
