Mint Cracknel and sweet cigarettes were mine.

I am new so hello to all!!    ;)

We used to have a sweet shop at the back of our junior school in Stanley Front Street and I used to love the little red boxes of 'tiger nuts', I think they were called. Does anyone remember them? 
Something in You brought out Something in Me that I've never been since......

I liked fruit salad.  You could get 4 for a penny (old penny).

And penny dainties.  Lovely toffee.

Black Jacks..........also 4 for a penny.

Sherbet strawberries and sherbet lemons.  You can still get these by the quarter at the Candy Store in Cullercoats  :)

Trini.
