We also used to have an egg man, and a flower lady, who was a true Romany, and used to sell lovely plants door to door!

I think the non choc sweets were better than the choc ones. Apart from Chewing Nuts which I loved but they could fetch your fillings out in seconds.
Does anyone else eat Haribo? I love the stuff.
