    SPANGLES...Yes came in different flavours, used to like the cola ones.
    I remember, there was a flavour called "Old English", came in a black packet...not so nice.

    I used to run the school tuck shop and sweets we used to sell: Opal Fruits, Marathons, Panda Pops, Mojos and Club Bars (If you like a lot of chocolate on your biscuit, join our club oo-er )

    How is Clevedon School these days?

    I've actually left school ...They're doing a lot of building work, there now, extending out on the playing fields. It's looking a bit different, these days. Probably wouldn't recognise it.

    Funnily enough, I bought a packet of of opal fruits (starburst ) on impulse, a few weeks ago. Not a patch on the old flavours & no yellow ones...Can you believe it!

    See, you're getting a bit nostalgic for Clevedon there Rob...Was lovely down at the seafront the other day, in the sunshine...Went on the pier, then had an ice cream. ...It's all good!
