I think eliminating rather than extracting would be more appropriate.

No mate, think taking rather than extracting. If this doesn't work I'll pm you. To save us detention and lines. You know what they are?

Sandy, I think I am going to have to explain this to Jim by PM as English English and Canadian English are as different as English English and US English.

I couldn't stop laughing when I saw this candy wrapper:

I couldn't possibly imagine the uproar using a wrapper like this would cause here if someone tried to use it. There would be riots in the streets.
And another thing.................After looking at all your candy treats over there and the nostalgic replies of everyone, I CAN'T POSSIBLY BE THE ONLY DIABETIC on this forum. You guys did everything but slobber on the pages. OMG. Frankie

We used to get Rockall's ice cream van round on Wednesday evenings in the summer. The came right out from Hibaldstow near Brigg out to Marton, 5 miles south of Gainsborough. That's a long way!. Also a fish and chip bus.

Tony.

ps. There was also a shop in Gainsborough where as a schoolboy cycling back to school after dinner you could get 1 No6 and 2 matches, but don't tell. SSHHHH!

Me and my chum used to smoke cigarettes called Dominoes. They came in an open topped pack of four. Sometimes if we were flush we bought five Players Weights! We used to creep into the yard by the side one of the pubs in Sutton, Surrey and nick empty soda siphons and bottles. The next day we would take them back to to the pub and get money back on them to buy the fags. Four of us used to go to the cinema, we bought one ticket and the guy that got in legit used to slip to the gents which was close to an exit door, then slip down, open the locked emergency exit door for the rest of us to creep in and one by one slip into and out of the gents to watch the film. Also we used to get up on the cinema roof and drop water bombs on passers by below. Heating up 2 shilling pieces with a cigarette lighter and putting it on the pavement when we saw a copper walking our way around the corner was also great fun. Oh, the innocence of youth!

Anyone remember the pink soft candy prawns? You could get 4 for one old penny!

@Shelly In the reply box, just above is the styling bar can you see an icon that looks like a film strip, next to the image icon?

Click on this and paste the url in

I'm trying to figure where you're talking about.

 

[bonzo]

Why does that not surprise me?

Which part?

 

[Shelly]

Wow so much as happened on this thread since I've been at work
Will be here all day catching up
Will have a read through .........
The old sweets are the best

 

[Shelly]

I used to like Texan Bars
A big chocolate covered nougat type bar.

Yeah Texan bars were lovely , the nougat got stuck in your teeth
Flying saucers yummy I still buy them Their are a winky sweet
Black jacks and fruit salads have a brilliant taste my mouth is watering
Cola bottles winky sweets too
Now for the next page

Now there's another thing. Back in the good old 80's in the days of AM CB radio. My handle was Blackjack, anyone else who used to use the old Chicken Box?

Tony.[/QUOTE

Yeah I had a CB radio ........
My handle was Chas - Nick
Chas was the person in Madness
And Nick was Nick Haywood
How embarrassing
But never mind that was my childhood
We had great fun on that device

 

[Shelly]

Got to love this thread, Shelly is heading straight for the room..........

O no HT
I've been to work most of the night
So I've done nothing wrong
Its a good sweetie thread
It will make your mouth water when you read it

 

[Shelly]

Anyone wants to have one of my sweets

 

[hard top]

Bonzo likes these and his wife is very happy but it does not stop him taping his keyboard though......

 

[NeRo]

Did anyone read this ~
Are chocolate bars getting smaller? It's all down to dark art of 'shrinkflation', say experts

Just got to laugh at this quote from Burton's Biscuits...

Burton’s Biscuits, which made Wagon Wheels vehemently denies the chocolate-marshmallow biscuit has shrunk, claiming ‘most often our first Wagon Wheel experience is in childhood and hence our hands are smaller.’

Sorry Mike, I've never taped my keyboard as I got rid of my cassette recorder ages ago!.....
