Hi guys n gals

I've been a busy boy so haven;t had much time to drop in and say hello to you guys for a while but I need to be a cheeky chappy and ask for your help for my next project which is right up your street. And is that the longest sentence in the world?

So Goldencup x, Lou Lou, Oldspice et all I will be making my very own Escape to the 70s Jamboree Bag and would like your help in deciding what sweets to fill said bag with. There are so many sweets available out there but which would really suit a Classic 70s Jamboree Bag.

Seriously tho guys, what were your favourite boiled sweets from the 70s?

Old English Spangles! Lovells Chocolate Nougat! Those yoghurt flavoured sweets - what were they called?

And..........Opal Mints!

Toffos (all different flavours but especially the chocolate ones), milk gums in a roll, Chuckles (nobody else remembers those). Nice to see you again Glamrocker!

Definitely Spangles. Don't think you can still get them though.

Can you still get those candy 'cigarettes' which came in a sort of matchbox?

i dont think you can now, they were banned so as not to encourage kids to smoke....

How about some drumstick lollies and a sherbet dib dab?

Chuckles (nobody else remembers those).

Chuckles..now did they come in a longer than normal tube type packet..were they..how do i put it..about the width of lets say a pamela violet and about as thick as 2 pamela violets..and were they very sticky ? i think the packet was purple maybe..

Yay! That was them! I knew I wasn't imagining it. For some reason everyone used to take them on school trips and they were indeed very sticky so not entirely suitable!

i remember we would put them in water and try and make fruit drinks..

totally yuck now that i think about it...
