Re: Dying for a ......................
 

Do you remember 'Secret' bars, 'Pyramints' (Terrys made em, they were a bit like an After Eight but in the shape of a pyramid) and Vice Versas? Vice Versas were stinkin honkin jivin! :blink: lol

Re: Dying for a ......................
 

And in Northern Ireland we called the ice-cream man the 'pokey man' as he gave ye a poke! :rofl: He used to sell those snooker ball bubblies which were huge and full of sugar, oh and sour monkeys too, like a huge sour haribo monkey! The best bubblies though were bazooka joes, a big long stick of bubblie you could blow up to the size of a bl**dy football! Also, jawbreakers and fireballs, boys a dear thon burnt the gub clean aff ye! :eek:

Re: Dying for a ......................
 

Spangles and Toffos! And Space Dust!

Loved Pyramints!!!

Re: Dying for a ......................
 

Yeah they were scrummy, but alas are no more!

Does anyone remember a bar which was just pure toffee and LOADS of peanuts covered in chocolate, the name 'starbar' keeps coming to mind, but I dont think thats right...mmmm

Also, who remembers those evil wee b*ggers, Victory V's?! What were they actually for? Just to give to people to hurt their mouths?! lol

In Scotland some of the older generation (my grandparents) call an ice-cream a pokey hat. I always thought it was cos the wafer cone was a hat shape. (Well sort of) :)

Re: Dying for a ......................
 

was that the NUTTY bar??

Re: Dying for a ......................
 

Not sure....or are you being a sarky divil!? lol :p

Re: Dying for a ......................
 

Just googled nutty bar and no, that wasn't it, this one was a nobbly bar and quite hard work to get through, though I always managed, ahem lol

Re: Dying for a ......................
 

i don't know then.that'll bug me now until i find out what it was called.

Re: Dying for a ......................
 

Ha...you'll have to go to Bickerstaffs (probably not spelt right) and ask if they remember!!! lol :p

Re: Dying for a ......................
 

I think it was called Nut Bar or Nutty Bar...looked like a Picnic but tasted loads better..:thumbup:
