Answer 2

I buy a jar of Teddy Gray's herbal tablets every couple of weeks. There is just over 3Kg in a jar and they give me a £2 discount when I buy the whole jar! My grandad used to give them me as a child and they're still made to the same recipe, well over 100 years old. No artificial sweeteners, preservatives, colours, and no one spits in the vat when they're being made.... Not everyone would like them I suppose. the herbal favouring isn't always that even; some are really strong! But I like them! The company has been around since 1826. So they've sold quite a lot, we can't all be wrong. But they have an amazing selection of sweets. These are 42p for 100g in the Teddy Gray's shop I go in; but I get a discount for buying the whole jar! I have paid 39p for small 50g bag - so they vary in price a lot. Their phone number is 01384 252139 maybe you can call them and ask where your nearest shop is. They do an amazing selection, you name it and they make it. Even sticks of rock and stuff for the seaside trade. Drop in to a teddy Gray's shop just after Easter and they've got the Easter eggs on at half price. There is always something half price! Great place if your kids go screwy on additives. My herbal tablets contain: Sugar, glucose syrup, Malic acid and natural flavours. No artificial crap!

Answer 3

Liquorish wood... could chew it for hours...

You could buy four for a penny of either: black jacks, gob stoppers, flying saucers, and many other sweets, all bought at the little corner shop outside the school we called the tuck shop.

Flying saucers and sticks of liquorish were a special treat as well.

Those were the days, when a farthing (4 to the old penny) could buy a treat and make your day!

For the younger people here, 5p = one shilling... with 20 shillings to the £1.

Since there were twelve pennies in a shilling, we got better value for our money.

The most I had to spend at any one time back then, was sixpence... which is half a shilling. Two and a half pence in today's money.

You could spend hours in the fields and woods hunting down discarded glass pop bottles, like Coroner (we lived close to the factory) Tizer, and Ginger Beer and such. We'd collect and swing them by their 'metal clip stopper tops', then trade them in for 3d each... or woodbines as we reached teenage, and have a sneaky smoke with the local gangs:-)

Nostalgia, nostalgia, nostalgia...

So many to choose from-aniseed balls, marshmallows, rhubarb and custards,toffee, fudge (i make my own toffee its a weapon of mass destruction for your teeth lol-just get a load of golden syrup, sugar and butter and boil till golden brown then pour in a baking tray and cool. Sometimes it comes out crunchy and soft and other times its hard and chewy!!)
