    Original hard wine gums were great. I think it was Lyons who made them. Used to get a quarter in a little triangular bag from the sweet shop.
    And sports mixtures. Neither taste the same anymore. Probably full of dodgy flavorings back then but they tasted great :)

    Can't remember exactly but between me, the wife, daughter and two grandchildren, we spent nineteen quid on sweets (and a bit more on beer!)
