# haha, how rare!
I used to be able to take a tanner down to the local shop for a 'smith's mix' ( shopkeeper was Mr Smith).
It was like a poor man's lucky bag I suppose. Can't even remember what was in it entirely but there was fruit salad, black jacks, a refresher, lolly ( the big round sugar one), a bazooka Joe, 2 sherbet flying saucers, a white mouse and a liquorice stick. All for tuppence ha'penny.

# We had that in Scotland as well
Saving up Bazooka Joe wrappers for a secret spy kit and a whistling ring became an obsession!

GTG, Time for work!

# I have no idea what those
imposters are, I'm talking about liquorice, aniseedy things that made your mouth go black like in a hammer house of horror zombie movie. Great for chasing girls round the playground.
