Do you mean to say that after your first tatse you actually came back for more? Bloody hell, the tone of this thread has already dropped...

It was our last pub on the way to the Night Club usually we were rather tipsy by the time we reached that particular pub lol

[42man]

erm, nope:D

 

The only Germoline I know is the 'magic cream' variety!

[tiglet]

Oh, I do remember some vicious tasting stuff with an antiseptic tang - didn't it come with a transfer or something?

[locutus]

Thats the one! and yes Lexis it tasted exactly like that magic cream smells!

 

The gum was wrapped in a transfer, and then that was all in a white wrapper from what I remember.

[tiglet]

Yeah! I remember one that doesn't exist anymore!

[42man]

I used to love the banana and strawberry Toffo's !!!

[lexis200]

Yeah! I remember one that doesn't exist anymore!

 

But it sounds like if you wanted to reminisce you could just lick a tube of antiseptic:D The plus side of that is your tongue will be very healthy!

[tiglet]

You never know, it might help my stinking cold ... and I already smell of vicks, lemsip and lockets, so it couldn't be any worse than that, surely?

[lexis200]

ahh, the smell of the cold season, gotta love it:rolleyes:

 

hope your cold gets better soon:)

Tigs....grated ginger, squeeze a whole lemon into a mug, boiling water, add sugar to taste....

[SOD'EM]

Does anyone remember Dentine Chewing Gum? We used to go and watch Liverpool around town in an open top bus and the team would throw packets of this gum to spectators. Obviously they had just won another cup.

[jaxads]

Cadburys five boys -- were they the bars where each segment had a different filling??

 

I used to like "Spangles" too!!!

[Ell-enn]

You might be thinking about Fry's five centres (like Fry's cream bar but different fruit creams in each segment).

 

Five Boys was a thin bar with the imprint of a little boy on the segments

[postggj]

chew, real slow

[tiglet]

..... and a tot of whisky! (drink it while in bed or you won't make it up the stairs )

 

I'll stick to the lemsip - was off the sauce for a while and had two pints and a glass of wine on saturday and was incapable of speech!

[moggieb]

Caramac-bit like caramal flavoured milky bar & liquorice wood which you chewed on until it went all frayed.
