In the late 70s / early 80s I used to have a lolly like a mini milk which just had the end dipped in chocolate and with hundreds and thousands on the chocolate. I remember the day I went to the corner shop and they said it had been discontinued, but I don't remember the name of the lolly.

Can't remember but it would have been either Walls or Lyons.  I think they stopped making them in the late 70's.

Lyons Maid were once part of the J Lyons empire. They made cakes, sweets and ices and also owned  the world famous Lyons Tea/Coffee Shops with the famous 'Nippies' (waitresses).


Another little known fact is that they designed the first computer to be used in a business. It was called Leo (presumably a pun on the name Lyon).


They have a fantastic website with lots of pictures of old products and there is a link to the Leo Computers website.
