After reading this thread last night I got a craving for the chocolate covered toffee sweets that are in the picture on Romps' first post. I went up to the sweet shop in Ossy - it's one of those traditional style sweet shops that serves things out of jars - and then realised I couldn't remember what they were called. So, I tried to describe them and after looking at me blankly for a few minutes she worked out what I meant. Unfortunately, she didn't have any so I ended up going home with bon bons instead. Not quite as good!
PS - anyone can get a card for makro

does anyone remember Spearmint Straps......they were 1d each and were pale pink and were sort of indented with a waffle shape......mmmmm, loved 'em.
Yes, I used to buy beech nut from the sweetie shop next to the paper shop on Nuttall ST in Accrington.....used to use my school bus money and then had to 'run it' to Peel Park.

Oooh, you're not on about Imps are you. You can still buy them, I saw some in Skipton the other week.
I used to like cinder toffee, I remember spearmint straps, spangles, chewing nuts etc......Mmmmm, my mouth is watering.
Remember Space Dust? The disgusting stuff that used to explode in your mouth in the early 80's, and the little transfers that used to come with Bazooka chewing gum..
