Wethers Original, Jelly Babies, those black jacks/fruit salad sweets, marshmallows and cola bottles (with and without sugar). Those long, red, stretchy stringy sweets too, but can't remember the name of them

We had 3d bus money but if we walked we could but 2oz of Tom Thumb drops or sherbet pips on the way home. Now my use of pre decimal currency and imperial weight has really shown the era I grew up in

Wham bars are amazing! There's a sweet shop near me that sells all different flavours when I was young I only had the blue one but now I've tried cola, apple, cherry, orange and I'm sure there are more x
