  1. Sugar...Did you say sugar? Count me in...Who can resist sugar?
    Not me. When I was a kid I loved candy corn, well really anything with sugar. Thanks for a chance.

  13. My favourite would just have to be spangles.. Why don't they still make them?? mmmm.

    I used to suck 'em and lick 'em until the centre wore through and I could attach it to my tongue.. lol.. Oh the fun!!! (and it's just not the same with the ready made hole in the polo!)

  17. Another vote here for tutty fruties, though I have very fond memories of buying McCowans Highland toffee from Shewans the Bakers - they seemed absolutely huge then!!!

    Golden Nuggets, I'd forgotten all about them - what a wonderful trip down memory lane! Didn't they turn into bubblegum when you chewed them, or am I getting my memories mixed up?!?!

  18. Sugar, yes please!! As a child I loved what my mam called "a bag of rubbish", lots of penny sweets in a bag. In them days you got loads for 10p. God that makes me sound old!! Chocolate mice, refreshers, bananas, candy cigarettes. Ooooh!!

  19. I forgot to ask, what on earth are lucky tatties?!?! Don't think I ever saw those on the shelves in the sweetie shop in Elgin!!

  21. Lucky tattie Pam were odd looking candy pancakes made of stuff like edinburgh rock but covered in a powdery cinamon with a plastic charm inside. Shame you missed them as I dont think they will make a come back!

  22. Oh my, what a flash from the past.
    Mine was Rainbow Kalie. I used to suck my finger and dip it in and end up with a red finger and belly ache.If Dad went to the allotment he'd bring some rubarb so I would dip that in too...double belly ache!

  24. tutti fruities here too- My late grandfather used to take me to the shop every time I went round to get a bag, penny sweets too particularly shrimps (they just aren't the same now) caramac bars (YAY they are back) and choc lick!

  25. Sweeties yum, my fav as a child must have been fruit salads and black jacks as you got 3 for a penny, a HUGE bag with 10p pocket money plus the added bonus of a BLACK tongue to scar my little brother with!

  26. I love Rainbow Drops. Our local supermarket sell great big bags of them and I have just munched half a bag of them. I keep dropping them down my jumper - luckily they catch in my bra and I can still eat them LOL!!!!!
