I rem.ember the milk chocolate sweets that were in the shape of tools and the white chocolate fish and chips. I used to think they were the best. You don't get waxy chocolate like that any more. Oh, and what about the shrimps and bananas, they aren't the same today. I think I've found a topic I can truly commit to  |

I rememb.er some sweets called "Chuckles" that used to be sold in "Wavy Line" shops back in 1974-1975. I never saw them after that. Probably I was the only one that bought them?
I believe they were a fairly cheap packet of sweets at the time, and had a really acidic cherry flavour.
I liked them anyway, and it was a shame they didn't catch on!

Needless to say I haven't heard of them ones Johnny! |

Oh behave, sharp indeed They were actually very disgusting Can still get cherry drops but I bet they're more than 20p now! I rem.ember when a Twix or Crunchie was 15p each - and they seemed far bigger then than they do now, but that's probably because my hands are bigger now. I would never imagine that these large companies would rip us off...  Anyone rem.ember the original Wagon Wheel - it must have been about 6" in diameter....  |
