Reading all the threads brings back great memories , especially the sweets.
God , used to get a huge bag of pennie sweets for 10p. Those were the days !!!!
Anyone remember a mint bar that was like a honeycomb texture with chocolate covering , can't remember what it was called.
Have enjoyed going back in time !!

Hi Debs
It was called Mint Cracknell (for reasons only known to those who made it!)

I think the 80's were the best years for music with groups like Yazoo and soft cell. Some of the fashion was gud, although i cringe when i look back on them bad perm days with a tin of hairspray. Can anyone remember the show called "Banana splits" and the chocolate bar called cabana and the frys chocolate bar with different centres YUMMY!!! Tania X

My perm was sooooo big it looked like i had a huge head. I thought i was gods gift in a pink mohair jumper that was about 6 inches thick and left a trail of hairs everywhere i went.
frys yummy they only do the orange now or peppermint? not the best. i heard on the radio that after 18 years they are getting rid of snickers and bringing back the marathon as it sold better???????? who knows
Remember the black and white zoro programme on TV in the school hols, The Banana Splits and of course good old Skippy?
We played a game we called American Skipping, but some called it elastics - you knotted them altogether and got two friends (or chairs if you were on your own) and had to jump on/over the elastics, each time it went highter
