You can still get tomato-flavoured crisps - not from the popular brand though - They're little cylinder shaped corn things whose name starts in a W, ends in S, and has 'heat Crunchie' in the middle.
Iced Gems. I've heard these are making a comeback, but I've yet to see the proof.

I've seen Iced gems in one of my local supermarkets, one of the big names. I've even seen chocolate flavoured ones.

Who've you found recently then?

I don't know. Maybe 'found' was the wrong term. But the talentless pop acts that nobody with a brain cell, and above the age of 12 likes annoys me. Bah.
Anyway.

Old women with a Pink or Purple rinse. Haven't seen that in ages, and I live in an aged area.

I was gonna put that about the purple rinse. I was at bingo the other night and I looked for a blue rinse - couldnt' find one.

Slippers with pom poms on. When I was small my great gran had some, tartan they were. She was very old and had no teeth.

Duffel bags. Come to that: duffel coats

Lizzbett Posted Feb 29, 2004
Duffel coats are still about - one of the blokes in my office wears one.
On the subject of slippers - I haven't seen any of those 'themed' ones lately. I once owned a pair that were styled as monkey heads (with red dangly earrings, for some bizzare reason)
