Isn't it odd how chocolate limes are regarded as 
, but chocolate oranges are 
?
Or is that just me?

Thought so. Usually it's my fault somewhere.

Lion's Midget Gems and Sports Mixtures. Lion's was bought out by Basset's and they were changed completely. Midget gems disappeared almost completely but Sports Mixtures are still going. They used to be really hard and chewy, now they're really soft. But there is one advantage of the new Sports Mixture for people like me who don't like liquorice in the fact that the liquorice flavoured ones were replaced with blackcurrant. There are some sweet shops dotted around that still stock old sweets that have disappeared and which people loved to eat, such as Lion's sweets.

I used to love Secret bars, Antelia.
Also whatever became of:
Country Style nut and raisin chocolate
Seville dark chocolate with orange flavour
Ice Breaker and Mint Cracknel mint chocolate
Fuse bar (bloody magnificent!)
Aztec and Supermousse bars
Is Old Jamaica still around? I know it came back some years ago but I have not seen it for some time.
Have some on me:

You can still get mint cracknel in Australia, and I'm sure they relaunched Curly Wurly, too.
I have been missing fry's chocolate cream and peppermint cream for years (living in Australia it's been impossible to find) until I discovered the "British Lolly Shop" in Darling Harbour... Sherbet Dabs, Sour Plums, and assorted other stuff to rot your teeth - yum.
