    Blimey Cromer that makes me feel old I remember them all, spotted a 'Cadbury's Bar Six' in there too. I used to go visit my Nan every Thursday who lived on Warwick Street and she would always give me sixpence pocket money and a Bar Six, that was late 60s.

    Happy days

    I remember them all too, seeing that box of Weekend has made me long for a whole box full right now!

    I bet the term 'sherbet dab' has whole new connotations these days, as opposed to when we used to get our pocket money! <yikes> :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Pacers! Better than toothpaste. Toffos just pulled your fillings out, and Tooty Frooties jam packed full of e- numbers - used to climb the walls after a packet of them

    Amazing how common red and blue are. We wouldn't have needed an away kit that season.

    I must admit that Cabana was a real favourite with the coconut flavouring. Going back even further do you remember fruit salads and black jacks which were 4 for 1d (not p) - them were the days!

    What about wagon wheels when they were about the size of a dinner plate. Now look at them.:emoticon-0121-angry
