Jules-and-Boo I guess as we age our taste buds are less sensitive so nothing tastes as good really especially when layered with a heady dose of nostalgia :)


Can I put in a request to carry these? Seeing as this is ED with a fair amount of French people and fans of their culture I bet they'd be a hit and I've always wanted to try them

OMG, my kids are going to be so happy. They have never quite got over the trauma of Hope and Greenwood turning into a dog shop. And then the false promise of the short-lived Sweet Sanctuary on North Cross Road, which turned out to be nothing of the sort. Make their dreams come true, Mr Simms!

Toffee bonbons (the ones with white outsides!) Treacle toffee! Plain Jane toffee! Those Sharps mixed toffees with crackly wrappers and lots of flavours! Butterscotch! Sherbet dips! Sugared almonds!


Can you still get those Old English (??) Spangles? I think they used to come in a black wrapper. Interesting flavours.


OMG my dentist won't be happy .... nor will my jeans ....

    • He wasn't great when interviewed on Channel 4 News this evening either, but he may get some respite tomorrow with the breaking Nandy story.
    • I was referring more to his performance at PMQs yesterday. It was quite a riot! Almost topped Mastermind  
    • Agreed, he should not be held accountable over the mess up over release of prisoners. On the other hand he did himself no favours with his gaffes on the BBC Master Mind programme where he passed on five questions. Where he did answer, here are some of his responses.... When asked who succeeded Henry VIII, Lammy incorrectly answered “Henry VII,” When asked which French scientist won Nobel prizes for both physics and chemistry?” Lammy responded with “Antoinette” When asked which fortress was built to defend Paris and later used as a prison, he answered “Versailles". When asked which variety of blue English cheese is often taken with port, he answered "Leicester" If nothing else he was entertaining.
