    Can you still get 'Spangles?'
    I'd look for them between the Pacers, Aztec Bars, and Fry's Five Boys Chocolate Bars.:D

    I hVen 't had wine gums for years! I'm glad they still make them. :D
    I'm mad for wine gums.... tried most of them by now. My preferred brand are the cheapo Tesco ones. Also Tesco midget gems are best/good - I usually choose these over wine gums now as I dip my paw into the bag and pull out 2-3-4 sweeties .... and as midget gems are much smaller the bag lasts a lot longer.

    I am terrible. I will deprive myself of a proper lunch for a box of chocolate fingers and a can of coke if the desire takes me.

    Just not in front of the kids. Do as I say, not as I do when you're at school!

    i can't have multipacks of anything in the house as i will simply eat the whole lot in one sitting instead of having proper food.

    it's also taking me quite a lot of will power to not replace every meal with 4-6 chunky orange kitkats.

    Mum's never used to be so mental. I blame binge drinking and JK.

    my favourite thing is my credit card debt, which currently stands at £2,754.11. will you be paying by cash or cheque? (don't worry about the odd penny, you can round-down your half).

    my mum's parenting style was based entirely on tutting at me, and smacking me for six occassionally. i like to think it didn't do me any harm, as i would have turned out this bad regardless.

    she certainly didn't fuss over much, and wouldn't have dreamed of wasting her time packing a lunchbox for me!

    ... and sweets.....useful for when lydiaj's kids visited.
    Did you fill them up with sugar/sweets, then send them home with mum? You won't see them again then.
