    Best Ever Sweet Shop Sweets

    I was thinking of the days when you get a 1/4 of boiled sweets from the local sweet shop, and what ones I liked there were many but my all time favorite was:

    Rhubarb & Custard"s


    What about you?

    Kop Kops, naturally!! (and I mean Liverpool FC, as opposed to my job!!!)

    And definately not Everton mints!! I find that they start strong, but get weaker towards the end, and they always seem a bit bitter!!!!

    I'm going way back now; Black Jacks, Fruit Salads,Sherbet Dips, Aniseed Balls, Gobstoppers but during the summer those mega sized Jubbilies....they've got small ones in Iceland now but not a touch and the ones we had when I was a youngster.
