Re: Marathon bars are coming back..!!

I used to love Caramac. Texan bars, those lime hard boiled sweets with chocolate inside, fry's chocolate fruit cream bars (with each piece with a different fruit filling).

Best friend and I would have 10p pocket money and would go and buy ten penny sweets after school. We would spend ages choosing from the pick n mix. Foam bananas, refreshers, pink shrimps, blackjacks, fruit salads, gobstoppers, drumsticks, flying saucers (my favourites). She would scoff hers and then spend the walk from school trying to wheedle mine out of me. I was so soft as a child I'd always give in.

They’re called candy sticks now, didn’t they have red tips like a real cigarette?

Fortunately I no longer eat sweets or chocolate or I would be very disappointed at what's no longer available. All those I really enjoyed are, it seems, no longer around!
