Why of course, and more than just sweets and cigs. I was "lucky" enough to be friends with one of the Glover family some time back, during all the ice cream war nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not as nice as I remember. I never tried it after I "grew up". Remember my brothers boys getting it when they were at our parents when they were wee, but I wasn't tempted. 14 minutes ago, Theroadlesstravelled said: Do you even still get these?

This being a double nugget with the single nugget having a simple wafer on one side. And as I'm posting that I'll also post this.. I have no idea if ice cream vans still do nuggets and oysters. You can but nuggets and oysters in Tesco. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 I loved a slice of Battenberg when I was wee, but I still do, so that's disqualified. I loved a Rum Baba too - very fashionable in the Eighties, it seemed, as you could get them everywhere. Would always have one when we stopped at the Woolworths cafe. Haven't seen them since I was a kid, but I'm pretty sure I'd still love them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C. MacLeod Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 2 hours ago, Suspect Device said: Could you cook that in a toaster? When I was under 10 there was a thing called Reddi-Bacon, which came in a foil pack and you could cook it in a toaster. Went off the market though when they realized that if the foil got a hole in it the bacon grease dripped into the toaster and you had a fire on your hands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching the first two or three episodes it was dreadful. Some things are best left in the past. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
