Pleased and amazed that others share my memories. I was going to say - liquorice allsorts, but so have many others, stick liquorice - we used to buy the twigs from our local chemist at 2 a penny, PROPER aniseed balls - 6d a quarter, with the seed in the centre, that tasted of aniseed and not just sugar, Trebor Refreshers - slightly fizzy, sold in a multicoloured tube, I used to see if they would make a fizzy drink in water - they didn't!, Black Jacks and Fruit Salad - a farthing each at our local shop, I think you can still get them, but they don't taste the way I remember! Oh! and liquorice Spangles - I never really liked the fruit ones but when you could get Liquorice only and Butterscotch only I became addicted. Whatever happenned to Spangles?
(You may have guessed, I like liquorice!)
