shoeshine Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I op'd a thread on General Chit Chat about 3 weeks ago entitled "Childhood Sweets.. Gobstoppers, Liquorice Wood etc" which had a remendous response from the old timers, and the young un's on SF. It brought back lovely memories for a lot of people. If you take the time to do a search, which is not difficult, you may be able to add to the joy that many of us had reading the posts. Just a suggestion, I am not trying to advertise.....

timo Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Desy, Re Snakebelts- I used to wear them in the late 1960s as a small boy. To my great surprise, I saw some for sale in the John Lewis store in the Trafford Centre [near Manchester] recently. Nostalgia nearly got the better of me, but my wife persuaded me that 44 year old lecturers do NOT wear Snakebelts. Spoilsport! She will be cancelling my 'Dandy' comic next...
