Yes I will admit to scoffing a few of my dog ones when I was younger.

But now you have jogged my memory, I could murder a nice big bag of choccie buttons - the human kind.

Do they sell them in Oz?:wub:

Ive got one of those quaint little British sweet shops near me but everything in it seems to be out of date. Will just have to hold out until I get back to England and then have a massive binge.

No need to go to England just go to Perth, I just stocked up while I was there on all my sugary rubbish just from the local IGA. Just ate a packet of Black Jacks today and a fireball jawbreaker :lol:

I bought 5 packs while I was there and I swear they are a lot hotter than I remember, gave one to my cousins 4yr old and he loved it was also amusing watching his face as it got hotter!

'Back in my day' they were 10p a packet.

I had a good feast on Cadbury's Giant Buttons when I was in the UK! I've seen the small ones here in the English shops but they were silly money for just the small ones :ohmy:!

How spooky, I was just looking at the Cadbury's UK site to see if I could ship a big box out but they will only do UK, unless I send Mum down to Asda to buy and make up a box and ship them over.

It's funny how you really miss certain chocci bars when you can't have them!

I like Aussie sweets as well - I love Clinkers (or is it Klinkers?) my god they are nice, so bad for your teeth but nice.

I use to like cherry ripe but Ive gone off them. Now my favourite is Whip bars.

I am busy converting Sunny Coast Australian kids to English sweets. I was asked by Ellie's best mate to let her know where I got "those polo things" from... I have converted 2 Melbourne originally kids over to Dime bars (from my various Ikea trips)..

I feel like I should put on a liquorice dog collar and hand out wispa bars to random strangers whilst solemnly quoting paragraphs of The History of Bournville....

Em x
