Sweet shop near my parents in Shropshire sells popping candy which I've not seen in sooooo long The only other place I know which sells it is in London, but unfortunately south of the river
Blasts from the past
Was in Asda today and bought some Screwball ice-creaams!! Not had them since i was about 14!!!! For those that dont know, they are an ice cream in a plastic upside-down dalek, with a bubble gum in the bottom!!
Has anyone else discovered stuff from their past recently?

OI! Nothing wrong with South of the river - unless you're a Saughtered Lamb
Anyone remember the chewy lolly called Drumsticks Yep - me and Len found them in our local Mackro's while shopping for sweets for the Tuck Shop at the Karate classes.
You'd be amazed at what you can find there

What about Lucky Imps?? If anyone can find any of those would be most apreciated
What were they? Next time I go to the Cash & Carry I'll try and have a look if I know what I'm looking for?

Are the Lucky Imps little sweets/mints that are really really hot??.. for some reason i keep thinking they were either black or red in colour
Blast from the past for me?.. my son watching the original versions of Paddington Bear and Bagpuss on video at the moment

Lucky Imps came in a small red box and were like very tiny black pillows - only with the heat of a volcano in each one! We used to have bets as to who could have the most followed by an ice cold can of coke!!!!
And another blast - i was at East Putney working last week, and Sophie Ellis Baxter came on the radio - i said 'I remember watching Blue Peter when her mum was pregnant with her'
To which my colleague replied ' JESUS! Ididnt realise you were THAT ####ing old!!!'
After several hours of crying, i told her were to go

As for blasts from the past, I was in a sweet shop the other day and they had Skull Crushers! They're little white skull things with strawberry flavoured stuff in the middle and you crush them and it looks (a bit) like blood oozing out!! I remember as a kid thinking that they didn't taste very nice but I still got them cos they were cool!!
do you remember the song the little mices would sing?...
