Yes, Fred, the black ones were so popular that they did a pack just with black ones. Weren't they called Old English?
Don't mention age here!

How about those chocolate flavoured sweet cigarettes which were in a paper pack and wrapped in paper inside. And Pyramids, a short lived but yummy one which was pyramid shaped (funny enough) dark chocolate with mint inside sort of like a pyramid shaped after 8.

Old English were all different colours Mike
But slightly darker
And tasted lovely!

Ah, brain cells letting me down again Alex - thanks - I remember the taste though...lovely.

You can still buy little pyramid cartons of juice for the freezer but they don't taste like Jubblys.
What about Mojos?

Well, believe it or not, I used to like Drifter chocolate bars! I preferred Opal Fruits to Spangles, though.
