Birmingham chocolate maker Cadbury is 200 years old on Monday.
In the late 1870s, the Cadbury brothers built a "factory in a garden" as they expanded their increasingly successful chocolate-making empire.

It’s so sad, to hear of Dave’s passing. Si’s tribute is so warm and heartfelt. Their warmth, love and friendship for each other and shared passions for food and biking will continue to shine.
RIP Dave x
Hi everyone, I’m afraid I bear some sad news. Most of you will know Dave has been fighting cancer for the past couple of years. Last night, on 28th February 2024, with Lili, Dave’s wife, his family, close friend David and myself by his side, he passed away peacefully at home. All who knew Dave are devastated at his passing. His beloved wife brought him such happiness as did her children, Iza and Sergiu who Dave loved like his own.
Personally, I am not sure I can put into words on how I feel at the moment. My best friend is on a journey that for now, I can’t follow. I will miss him every day and the bond and friendship we shared over half a lifetime. I wish you god’s speed brother; you are and will remain a beacon in this world. See you on the other side. Love ya.
I know Dave and his family would want me to thank all of you who sent messages of support in recent times. It meant the world to him, his family and all The Hairy Bikers team. I am sending you all much love and gratitude for those simple acts of kindness, generosity and spirit. We are eternally grateful for them.
May I ask you all for one further kindness and allow Lili, his wife, his family, close friends and I some time and some peace to process our huge loss. I am sure I will see you all soon.
Love Si x
@TUIUK we have a holiday planned to the Dominican summer 2024 (3 bookings which are linked) but have experienced poor service on booking, which is still unresolved. I can’t find a way to complain about TUI wanting to take an extra £400 per room for a mistake that isn’t ours!!!
Year 3 are on their next adventure to @WookeyHole. 90M below the surface exploring amazing caves! We showed our super science knowledge from our rocks and soils topic.

Wow! So much to see @RomanBathsBath. We were archaeologists underground digging for artefacts and loved the fantastic interactive workshops. @CLOtC#history

No swimming today! Plenty of listening to our audio guides as we walked around the Roman Baths. We can now successfully dress in togas but aren’t convinced we would swap our 2023 clothes for them, a good debate was had! @voice21oracy
