What is your favourite sweetie? Sherbert Lemons, Rhubarb and Custard, Chocolate Lime?

Which sweeties remind you of being a kid? or which chocolate bar? how about Flumps, or DibDabs, or Rainbow Drops???

My favourite would be Fruit Salads (but not Black Jacks)...what was your favourite???

Polos. The mint with the hole, you have to love those little holes. . . . on the other side of the coin I like the polo Holes sweet that was released a few years ago. They were ace.

Jelly Babies. Yummie!

Those viscious little mints that they sell at Costa Coffee. They come in a small metal tin and if you pop in two at once then they are strong.

That's not a favourite from the past, you can buy them right now.

Whilst trying to remember the names of those darn tasty sweets, I've stumbled upon a store that sells them. Mmm.

Sherbet fountains and Double Dips feature strongly in my childhood. I also used to buy Jelly Babies just after swiming class on a Wednesday evening. Ooh, and let's not forget those candy whistle things.

Ah, the days when penny sweets actually cost a penny, and the shop owner used to empty our sweet bags out to check we hadn't mis-counted them. I am so hungry now.

I loved (still do) Sherbert lemons, sherbert fountains and flying saucers (with...er...sherbert...think I may have a problem!).

Trebor Extra Strong Mints always remind me of my Granddad as he always had a packet with him.

Wagon Wheels rocked - always tried to get the chocolate off first - still do!
sherbet dips were cool
was it a liqourice wheel? Can't remember the damn name - they were gorgeous.
