Jelly Babies, one is never enough, Divine (fair trade) Chocolate bars, as the name says they're Divine, also love Aniseed Twists, got to be the twist though not those awful balls or cough candy, ooh and chocolate rum truffles. from childhood, Spangles, black jacks, sherbert lemons I could go on and on....

If I did it would be very stale.They have not been made for forty years and more.
Maybe they improve with ageing!
Don't eat it until you have finished your Five Boys and your Bar Six.
When Walnut Dreams were made Walnut Whips had two walnuts in as well.One inside,one on top.

Back to my Walnut Dreams.They didn't last long,I can't think why!

Terry's Spartan were always my choice for a box of chocolates,all hard centres.The last time I had some they were very disappointing,not the same at all.

Do you remember Pyramint?That didn't last long either.

I like most sweets but prefer chocolate. Not too keen on jellies or Turkish delight. I especially like sherbert lemons murray mints and I am rarely without a packet of extra strong mints. Love toffee but these days steer clear of it because my teeth wont stand it. With boxes of chocolates prefer the hard centres. Are those enough hints for you Keith???

oh Jane, I know what you mean !!
AND I also broke up rock with mums rolling pin ! lol ! lol !
It`s making me smile to read your comments , so much like mine !
I liked sherbet lemons.....I used to try to suck the sherbet out of one end , leaving the lemon to eat last !
Raspberry Ruffles !!! now, they were expensive, but on the rare occasions I got one, mmmmmmm !
At Christmas we always got a little tin of Blue Bird toffees....I had quite a few empty tins once, each with a lovely picture on the front ! and Mum would buy a slab of toffee in a tray,with a little silver hammer to break it !
there was a plain toffee & a nut one.
( I believe they have brought these back again !)
