Going to the shop as a kid and asking the shopkeeper for a '10p mix up bag' and he/she would select 10 random sweets and put them in a bag. Shame you can't do that anymore.

Sunny days, no worries, years stretching ahead of us, young vigorous parents, loving school, carefree times - loving sweets and treats!

I remember telling my first boyfriend that I was interested in him by way of Love Hearts...shyly giving him one that said "Hug Me" :D

Stealing pic n mix from my Grandad's corner shop and getting caught!!

The earliest memory available within my brain. I was around 5/6 years old and was in the local park with my parents. The fun fair was in the park today so it was very exciting. I took one look at the ferris wheel and took off like the wind towards it. Whilst running my shoe came off, but I never noticed, the excitement took away my sense of feeling to my feet and in my socks I continued running to the fair whilst my parents laughed.

nagging my mum to pop in the sweet shop on the way home from school for some sweets everyday

when my brother who is 7 was a baby, he met santa and they tickled each other

I remember going up the club with my dad and eating animal bars whilst playing on the arcade machine and football on the TV!

The old school swizzels wheelie bins with sweets in i used to feel so happy when i got these as a kid, best sweets ever!

Baking cupcakes with my children and having so much fun

Parma Violets were my fave when I was in school, bought lots every day. Even now, the smell is just so nice - I could eat lots today as well!

Going to my nan's and raiding her sweetie tin :)

Last Friday we had a rare but wonderful family meal. both children are at Uni and we met at a central point. I am so proud of my chidren. they are bright, compassionate, and thoughtful human beings
