Lou, have you been to The Sweetie Shop at 11 Stockton Terrace, Sunderland? If so is it any good?

It was but I don't think it is there anymore. Where did you find about it ?

It was full of old fashioned sweets in jars and sold everything you could think of.

If you like your olde worlde sweets, try Candies in Birmingham - across the road from the Hippodrome and next to the back to back museum, hence it sells all the old classics.

a bit far for me to travel.

It's even quite a long way for me.

Where do you live Lou Lou? I know Bounty is a Nottingham person, as I used to be. Have they done anything with the old Co-Op yet Bounty?

I don't think so. I used to love going in there. It was a real old fashioned department store. Even if the staff were crap and the stuff a bit expensive it was great to walk around and have a coffee on the top floor.

Lou, can you get a train from Newcastle to Edinburgh? How long does it take?

We can get them from Peterborough but I'm not sure whether they stop in Newcastle.

There is a regular service between Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Edinburgh. The journey takes one and a half hours.
