Oldest sweet shop is consistently out of stock of a lot of things, where else is there that's good and what would you like in your bag?

I'm going for

Sweet peanuts
Blackcurrant & Liquorice
Toffee bon bons

I use Treasure Island Sweets. I've never had a problem with them.

You're welcome.

As for what I want, I'm trying to resist the urge to say everything.

I want jelly snakes
Sharks/dolphins
Strawberry laces
Dracula teeth
Jelly brains
All of the gummies really
Plus Turkish Delight

One I have used recently is Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shop. They used to have a few shops on the high street.
