Pacers.

Basically white chewits with three green stripes through the middle.

Excellent, they were mint...

Those frozen triangular drinks (orange flavour) - cola cubes - army&navy - and refreshers (yellow chewy sweets with sherbet).

I liked the pretend cigarettes. The chocolate ones were pants. There was that sweet tobacco stuff as well. No wonder I lit up as as soon as I was old enough to buy a pack of real tabs!

There was always the evil twin of the Wham bar, the Gorgo. Green with black candy/spacedust in it.

Spare a thought for me.

Me mam worked at the factory (Burtons) where they made them!

Jesus and I thought I was abused!!!

At the same time ? Now that is an eclectic combination !

You could buy just blackjacks on their own or just fruit salad on their own but I liked to mix them. I think they were just 6d for 4oz.

No, you should have gone to a state school, it'd toughen you up. Getting a hard leather football kicked in your face, and acting as though nothing happened as everyone in the playground exclaims 'oooohhhhhh' is a rite of passage (worse if it hits you in the family jewels).

I'm quite glad of the sheltered and pampered upbringing I had actually, those leather footballs and other rough stuff is quite unneccessary (sp?).

I think I did OK being woken up in the middle of the night, put in a freezing cold bath and then having the door taken off it's hinges and placed on top so I just had enough room to stick my face out and breathe for a minute. All character building stuff..
