There has been a rise in traditional sweet shops of late. Trying to think of some from my youth. Does anyone else remember these?
Swizzles, curly whirly, Old Jamaica, Love Hearts, Flying Saucers, Sherbet Dip, Astec, Opal Fruits, Texas Bar, Toffee Crisp, Picnic, Double Decker, Lion Bar, Refreshers, Jelly Tots, Caramac.

A trip down memory lane for those of us of a certain age. I had completely forgot about Cadbury's Bar Six and Toffo, I used to love them back in the day.

I loved both of those ... And the assorted Toffo's were yummy.
Obviously I'm not of a certain age ... Someone told me about them :v
Just to make out that I'm from the times of Dickens !
I can just remember the excitement of getting my ....

Boy's life.

Old Jamaica! Now there's something I haven't thought of in years. I can almost taste it. And yes...Spangles. Nothing comes close to them.
I think you can still buy Old Jamaica. Yes Spangles! There was also this other confection I can't remember it's name but it sort of looked like loose tobacco. It was made from coconut I think, coated in sugar, brown in colour. You bought it by the quarter in white paper bags. Does anyone remember?
I drink Old Jamaica Ginger Beer, but was not aware that it was also a Confectionery.

Old Jamaica is the best ginger beer. Great with rum, for a dark and stormy! -{
Don't remember the tabacco you're speaking of, but I do remember the cigarettes...the white sticks with a red end, you can still get them, but they're not marketed as cigarettes anymore!

I used to love sweet cigarettes .... In the winter I used to blow out cold air pretending they were real ... Can see why they changed the name to Candy Sticks )
i remember that stuff , i think it was braned Spanish gold ,it was like strands of brown coconut stuff i think ,
and i used to love those AZTEC bars ,you mentioned Stag, a good night in as a boy would be ginger beer and a licorice pipe ,oh the joys of a simple pleasure ,
Im 11 years this month with my mrs but still not married! The pressure is building up with hints, the kids asking and our mutual friends seem to be marrying left, right and center which doesnt help!!!
Don't stand on the top hat then.
Given his location, I see a decorated Land Rover, camouflage gear with
A flower in the lapel, and a few penguins dress as ring bearers.

Managed 11 years as a couple unmarried, 10 of those years with kid(s) before my wife and I married.
Kids loved the idea of attending their mum and dad's wedding, which none of their mates had/have done.

Taken 3 ?
More of the same but if you like that kind of thing , watchable.
It does suffer that it only has a 12 rating. It's a bit game in comparison.
Think I have a girl crush on Famke Janssen ....still stunning

You'd have a sugar filled syringe with a bag of
Sherbet, with rub on tattoos of needle marks.
