Fruity Blue. I still remember my delight as a five year old when I first saw a blue ice lolly. I begged my Mum to buy me one, but she refused and told me it was "just vegetable dye" which gave me the vague impression it would taste like cabbage
Tom & Jerry lollies were lovely. I remember my Mam buying big packs of them (6 or 12 I think) from Fine Fare in the early 80's. The Cola flavour was really nice and really strong!
I had a few Goggles/Googlies when they were around.
The Finger from Walls was another body part lolly. I used to think if I could afford it I could buy 2 Fingers, 2 Funny Feet & one Funny Face & make a figure out of them, at least until they melted.
Anyone else remember an ice-cream lolly somewhere along the lines of Funny Faces and Funny Feet that were made in the shape of glasses, well two circles stuck together. They were chocolate flavour ice-cream round the edge and blue coloured ice cream in the middle where the 'lenses' would be. In the middle there were two chocolate buttons for the eyes. I think they were called Goggles or maybe Googles or Googlies? I remember the tough decision every time about wheter to have a Funny Feet or one of these. Ususally these won due to the fact that they had blue ice cream in!!!
I also loved zooms for the banana ice cream middle and also Bananaman lollies. I really wish they would bring those back!!
Lord Toffingham
Dracula (still sold in Spain,had one a few years ago)
and two I can't remember the name of..
but had unique lollysticks..any ideas?
one had a white and red footballer shaped plastic stick
the other was blue plastic with a stencil type thing on both ends
(may have been called codebreakers or something)
Can't quite remember the name of this lolly. Sure it had 'Spy' in the title. You put the blue stick on some paper and wrote out the code that was etched into the stick. Then you turned the stick around and wrote again, and some words 'magically' appeared.
Although I can't remember the name of the lolly, I do remember that you could send off for a 'Secret Spy Pen'.
Damn! The name is going to annoy me now.
