He used to be a man - but you can change anything these days. I will try not to look shocked when I see her at the next forum drinks.

Just got back from Sainsburys...sorry Cate, they are definitely not the same...too hard and the taste is not to my liking, though cheaper at 98p for 150g.

Mick Mac...Sainsburys Basics range do Midget Gems at 28p for 150g (yep you heard)...you could do worse than to give them a go.

[Mick Mac]

LM - thank you for the suggestion but there is NO substitute for the original MGs........Sorry.

[Ladymuck]

Yes, I am able to relate to that...it's the same for me and the liquorice toffees...but you could at least TRY them even though you are 99% sure that the experience will entail disappointment. I bought a bag of liquorice toffees in Sains. today - had one, put the rest aside. But, I know full well that at about 3.00 in the morning when I am desperate for something sweet and chewy that they will be scoffed in no time - inferior or not. And then I shall feel sick!

Its becoming clear that some forum members are sticklers for tradition when it comes to original formulas:

- Midget Gems (hard)

- Pears Soap (non-chemical, non-itching)

- Marmite (glass jar)

Er.....I'll stop there. For now.

[eusebiovic]

Do they sell Cinnamon Balls? The shiny black ones not the pink...

and Uncle Joe's Mintballs? - I love those ;-)

[woofmarkthedog]

I....

Am trying not to ask but.....

I really want to ask Miss Hope if I can "lick" her

I know it sounds kinky but does she taste of sugar or spice ?

Or god forbid "salty"

Though definitely not "umami"

I live in hope as it were

W**F

I shall read it with glee

Though do you have that trick snap chewing gum in stock ?

I have a naughty boy who needs "sharpening up" somewhat

That and a carefully placed chilli chocolate should do it

[KidKruger]

Imps - the tiny hard liquorice sweets in a little box.

Memory lane stuff I guess.

[katie1997]

See what you've started Mick Mac.

The chocolate chilli and lime truffles are heaven. Forget midget gems. Acquire a taste for these instead.

God knows i have tried Katie and also had the counselling, but to no avail.

[brum]

Ah! To smell inside Hope and Greenwood,

Or to taste it as Woof would...

Such sweet candy so temptingly rare

Over the counter laid beautifully bare

Black Jacks and liquorice toffees to chew

Mint balls and gems and gobstoppers too

Bergamot, Lavender, Geranium Truffles

Little white mice and chocolate bubbles...

[Mick Mac]

Brum - can you please declare your alligiences (if any) to Hope and Greenwood?

Have you earned a fee for your H&G lobbying work?

[brum]

No allegiences Mick. Just a penchant for quality and a very sweet tooth. And I'm just in a poetic frame of mind!
