Chewing nuts were a big favourite along with army and navy tablets, coconut mushrooms, choc dip. But so many of the flavours have changed over the years and the price of them for 4oz is ridiculous.

That plastic handle thing with a cartoon head at the top.

You bought these sweets as a refill for it, pulled the head back to release the sweet.

I can't remember it's name.

I liked Wham bars too, tried them a few years back and they are much smaller and not as sour in the crunchy bits as they used to be.

We used to have those jars of sweets, you know the ones you bought a 1/4 of. Anyway, we had ones which were called Swansea mix but I think the real name was old fashioned mix. They would have an assortment of different hard boiled sweets with spearmint ones, chewy humbugs, aniseed, and lots of other flavours.... oh they were proper nana sweets but flipping lush.

Honestly, you can get your shoes repaired, buy a battery, some welsh cakes and a bone for the dog all within a radius of covid social distancing

Ooh I also used to like giant strawberries and giant cola bottles.

I now know how I have fillings in my teeth

I lived for Bon bons as a child. Hard ones are very disappointing though.

I hadn’t had them in years until a very beautiful woman delivered me some recently

Nearly all of them were absolute tooth rot!

I became most impressed when I started dating Africans with perfect teeth who had a childhood free from the rubbish we were constantly sucking.

There was a bar that I can’t remember the name of but the tv advert was a cowboy that always got out of trouble and walked off into the distance telling you how you could just keep on chewing it
