Whatever happened to Space Dust.....


.....cola cubes, double dips (with swizzlestick), mojo's, sherbet pips, flying saucers, rainbow drops.....

You can find them all at A Quarter Of, and it's not just a memorabilia fan site either, it's a shop, and one where my credit card is about to get hammered reminiscing.

Their current "sweet of the week" is the Wham bar. I remember dabbling in amateur dentistry as a kid; wham bars were great for pulling out wobbly teeth.

What were your favourite sweets?

Mojo's I have a fond remembrance of.

Our milkman Fred would always have one or two ready to give to the kids on his round.

Obviously these days he'd be hauled off by Social Services.

You can still buy WHAM bars you know!

My fave was Texan Bars and Acid Drops.
But not the sweetie kind...

Cola bottles and chocolate covered peanuts.

And chocolate covered raisins.

And bon bons.

And space dust.

No wonder my teeth have so much metal in them that I can pick up the shipping forecast.

At least I think that's where the voices come from.
