What do you miss?

[boz]

Me and Mrs Boz have been chatting about some of the sweets you could get in times past that are no longer available. I loved Texan bars and she loved Spangles.....remember them? They just aint about now and that's a shame.
I'm wondering what everyone else misses, whether it be sweets, foods or anything else that you can't get now which should be brought back by act of Parliament.
Lets make a list of this stuff.

Fuse bars, they were good.

Petrol at £1.00 a gallon and fags at 50p a packet......oh, and a pint for less than a quid

sh1t, I can go further back than that.....17p for fags, pint for 40p, petrol I can't remember. The cars I got in to normally had fuel in them and when it ran out we would dump it and go get another

Unfortunately so can I. petrol 42p a gallon, 5 no.6 and a couple of matches from Ma Morris`s shop for 12p and so it goes on......its great being "old"

Spangles - used to love the licorice ones.

I miss Harveys ale from Sussex, only coz you can't get it up here (or anywhere else outside sussex really), my MTX200 and empty roads.

Lucy Stevens as well.

Protesting used to be good - the Anti Nazi League and all that.

And Man U when they were totally incapable of winning anything - that used to be fun.

and lastly Corona pop - parents used to buy a crate at Christmas, mixed flavours and I loved the limeade one

Well, with too much of any ale you can't get it up, so no surprises there.

Caramacs, oh yes. They are the dogs. We got a certain sweet shop up here still sells them. You ever want any big fella, PM me and I'll arrange a delivery. If your tooth is that sweet, I should send you some Tablet. Made from pure sugar, condensed milk and other ingredients. Its legalised speed, you'll get the shakes after 2 bars. Then your teeth fall out.

And there we have it, folks, ground zero, staring you in the face, coughing and sneezing, not even bothering with the crook of his elbow.
