As a kid on the way to school I used to pop into my local sweet shop 2 times a week and buy 2oz of Tom Thumb Drops or 2oz of Pear Drops or sometimes 2oz of rainbow drops .which were the milk choc buttons covered with hundreds and thousands and 10 Black jacks and 5 shrimps and then I'd sit in the back row in English class and my friends and I would share them secretly Oh those were the days! What did you like as a child from the local sweet shop.
