What a lovely memory.

When I was little we had two lovely sweet shops.

 I used to get lots of easter eggs from family members etc for easter however I used to particularly love the little creme eggs and one easter me and my mum went in and I got 50 creme eggs. I think it was to give out at sunday school, for an easter play or something xxx

I used to eat cream eggs, loved them, cant eat them now.  :'(
I’d nibble the top off, nibble half way, then shove the other half in.  ;D

Sweet cigarettes, and shrimps. Omg, so yummy. 😋

No wonder I had a mouth full of fillings.  ;D  today, we’d be hung, for eating all that sugar!  ;D ;D
Wouldn’t we tho?

I preferred mushrooms to the shrimps. Yes, we would be in trouble for eating all that sugar but we did not have as much fizzy pop as they do now so maybe it balanced the sugar a bit. ;D

No, they were pink and white. They did not really have any flavour now I think of it but I loved them at the time.

Lol yes I loved Sherbet dip. The better one was in the circular paper were the dip was liquorice.
