favourite sweets

I did a raid on Stockleys about 6 months ago, I was ill for a week......:) I got cart loads of Coltsfoot Rock, Sarsaparilla Drops and Old English Mints to name a few. Might even pop over for a look today......:D
Now I ve heard of them heehee
 
woolworths started to sell spangles under a different name about 5 years ago although they dont sell them now-anyone know what they called them?i only know cos my mum went crazy about these packets of sweets and i thought it was about time she went into a nursing home haha.googled them and seems someone else has recently said same as me!
