bridge too far Posted 22 August, 2008 Posted 22 August, 2008 Mr TF and I have just returned from a trip out in the Cotswolds. We found a shop selling old fashioned sweets in jars!!!!! We have come back with little twisty bags with 4oz each of Sherbert Lemons, Rhubarb and Custards, Sogs and Bitter Acid Drops. Awesome
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 22 August, 2008 Posted 22 August, 2008 I'm a kind of old fashioned sweetie myself. I am waiting for Bates to add the inevitable double entendre...

Al de Man Posted 23 August, 2008 Posted 23 August, 2008 They'll get fined soon enough for using imperial measures rather than metric.
Jillyanne Posted 23 August, 2008 Posted 23 August, 2008 One in Totton near Eling Tide Mill is the best one.
Danny Posted 23 August, 2008 Posted 23 August, 2008 There's also one on Manor Farm Road in Bitterne Park, near to the school.
bridge too far Posted 23 August, 2008 Author Posted 23 August, 2008 OK OK I thought I'd found something special. Common as muck, it seems

EastleighSoulBoy Posted 24 August, 2008 Posted 24 August, 2008 Also one in the Swan Centre opposite Ourgoose (sp. on porpoise). Is it my taste buds though? These sweets all seem less full of flavour then when I was a kid? OK, I know I'm going back some 45 years!
