Oh that's a shame, but at least we have some evidence of it on board all be it a bit small.

Nice one

And it's interesting to see it was actually Gorgo, not Gorgon like I thought it was for all these years, I remember buying them from the local Greengrocer/ newsagent/ post office/ off-licence (basically one of those small corner shops that was everything rolled into one!

The kind of shops with potatoes just in sacks on the floor and those really old style freezers that were beige and had two lids on the top (you basically had to climb the thing and then dangle down inside it to get at what you wanted!)

Happy days!

Re: Defunct sweets?

I seem to remember one called Gorgon, which was like a WHAM bar but green with grey bits in it?

My Mum didn't like me eating them, due to the possible high level of E numbers, & what appeared to be grit in it.

There was an tropical bar in the same range, mango flavor IIRC. One of my friends managed to get some stuck in a carpet at his house!
