It must be the pink panther, although it doesn't seem familiar to me but it's the only pink chocolate coming up on search. x

I found Reiss chocolate toffee the other day. Mmm, lovely.
My son said he'd not had any since school.
We enjoyed the whole packet in two days. 😋

Yes I do. I've never liked it. My mom did though.
You can still get that can't you now?

I like the white and pink marshmallows. Trouble is, I eat the whole bag then feel 🤮.

My best friend at school always had a caramac at break. I'd have my Texan.

Yes I used to quite easily scoff a bag of marshmallows. Too much sugar gives me palpitations now. My body decides what I eat and drink now...   Being in meno is a bit like having someone else in charge of your body!

When we were in Rye last week there was an old fashioned sweet shop, the windows and walls were crammed with jars, I spent ages oohing and aahing at sweets I havent seen you years.  I was really boring and bought pear drops  ;D they were passed to us via a fishing net to keep out distance  ;D

Our village shop sells old fashioned sweeties and there's a dedicated old fashioned sweety shop 5 miles away :-)
