"penny arrows ,and those cigarettes with a red end , no idea what they were made from."

And I was gonna say the cigarettes with the red ends. They were in a packet like a cigarette packet, weren't they? I'd forgotten all about them until I bought the kids some 'Scooby-Doo / Spiderman candy sticks' the other day which reminded me of them. No red end anymore. Made from: sugar [of course], corn starch and glucose syrup.

Has anyone said those chocolate cigarettes? They were wrapped in rice paper and really looked like 20 cigarettes, Camel I think?

I used to like those little chocolate things that came in a tinfoil cupcake case.

Not sure if they actually had a name but they just vanished from existance.

Also, not exactly from the ark but there were some chocolate eggs called 'Deux' or something with a cream coloured tin foil wrap which had both light and dark chocolate but where far to delicious to even fathom. Also disappeared. That was a sad day for me.

I remember Dracula lollies, they were shaped like him, as if laid in his coffin, and bright blood red like you said. Wow, that's a blast from the past

I'm sure the sherbet in tube with licorice was the 'fountain' as the dab was in a packet with a strawberry type sweet on a stick to 'dab' the sherbet.
