    Well while were on my favourite subject :D who remembers Banjos? Mmmmmm!!! I often dream about how id love to taste who of these again. They were a two finger bar and had little tiny nutty pieces in a wafer with chocolate.

    Btw if they are bringing back Wispas then i agree that they should also bring back the Wispa gold, yummmm.... All that smooth gooey soft caramel inside.

    Lucky im feeling under the weather otherwise all this talk of choccy could have tempted me to undo the tin of roses and quality street (2 for £9 tesco) that i have been soooo good to have still kept sealed for about 3 weels now. No idea if they will make it until Xmas, cant believe they are still here now.

    My 2p worth (can't get much for that no though eh!)...

    Wispa (obviously!)
    Texan Bar
    Spangles
    Fizz Bombs

    not sure if
    a) they all exist anymore
    b) they would taste as I remember, or exactly how they tasted in actual fact - I just remember I liked them!

    :p
