Yes Julie, I remember sweet tobacco; that was wrapped in a red waxy wrapper. Gorgeous! (The tobacco you understand, not the wrapper).

Black Jack Lollipops! They were liquorice and blackcurrant, I think. Whatever, they were luvly! But of course they don't do them anymore. Pity - the kids of today don't know what they're missing.
