There is nothing like the word Haighs for giving a person away as a South Australian!

‘What is Haighs?’ as a friend asked the other day. What?! Only the best chocolate in the world! Better than Swiss, better than (sorry to all native Western Australians!) The Margs Chocolate Factory (only marginally, though) and certainly better than Hershey’s, even though the Americans claim otherwise.

I left home at age 12 to go to boarding school in Adelaide. Orroroo, where I lived at the time, and Adelaide are only three hours’ drive apart, which really isn't that far when you think about it. But the world I changed to from Orroroo was as far wide and different as if I'd moved to Antarctica!
