I think chewing nuts were chocolate covered toffees.

They were. They were like bullets. I wouldn't dare eat them now. Not if I wanted to keep my teeth.

A sherbet dip, a quarter of chocolate limes and a lucky bag please. You can drop by to pick up the pop bottles to return, the money back should pay for the sweets.

Sherbert pips for me too, please.
I was surprised anyone else chose them.Smile

A pack of sweet cigarettes that I can pretend to smoke then eat when they get sticky, please. And a pack of flat Thunderbirds bubblegum with the picture cards in (only if it’s Scott Tracy, I have collected loads of the rest of the team). Thank you!
