It was a choice of sherbet, paragorics, those sour apple things, wine gums, chocolate nibbles, crunchy éclairs or rhubarb and custard.

The choice was very important and usually involved getting the most for the least amount of money.

Odd fellows, granny sookers, Rosie apples, sour plums, rhubarb and custard, crumble mints, aniseed balls, iced caramels.

Broken candy - this was the dog bollocks. The sweetie shop used to pour the remnants of the tubs into one giant tub and sell it as it comes for 10p a bag - that was seriously cheep compared to the real sweets and it tasted divine!!

I though the sherbert fountains were the paper tubes filled with sherbert and a liquorice sticking out the top.

The ones I meant were just liquorice filled with sherbert. Vaguely remember them being plugged at one end with a hard bit of sherbert and squished flat at the other end.

Googled it. Sherbert flyers.. now I want some.
