The Local Shop

Well it has to be at least for us, Willabys, if that is spelt right, we would get our fix of kett there, let me think, two a penny sweets, and that was when a penny was a penny, if you know what I mean. You could get this silver tray filled with this hard boiled candy with a stick in it, golden cup I think it was called, they also did a red one but I don't have a flavour, maybe you know? I do remember the price of a Marathon, sixpence, Tudor crisps, Jubilees, sports mixtures, I know you can still get them but in name only, they are not the same but what is, we've got sugar free sugar now. Eh.
