Oh right, was wondering if you could translate my USA and ICC thread into a "Crush special" sentence or paragraph

"Crush Special" as in "Fookin Rebel" or "Critic Type Summary"

I thought you didn't do the "fookin' rebel" types anymore

Remember the summary you did for Crypt's massive passage? That kind of one

Read some of it, but the shortened version seems spot on anyway!

Can't believe they're doing that!

I'd forgotten "real" gobstoppers. OMG!!
The sweetie stall in the market closed down abt 6 months back. Shame. All the old style newsagents here seem to have been taken over by Asians, and now sell everything EXCEPT loose sweets. I don't blame the Asians, they serve a need, and I've been glad of the local Spar when I've had one or two and it's still open late at night when I couldn't drive to Tesco.
Pineapple chunks! Olde English! Sour Apples! (that stuck together and to the bag if you didn't eat 'em within a couple of hours), 3 different types of bonbon!!
Tea time I think. Or dinner if you Southerners would prefer.

My Gran used to run a sweet shop. All the jars and everything.
Now she's sold it about 25 years ago and it was a corner shop for ages. Now converted to posh houses

such a shame

Do you know nayone with a cash n carry card? That's where you'll get the squidgy mushrooms off the penny tray.
I used to stock up on fizzy cola bottles, tub at a time but no longer have contact with anyone that uses the cash n carry

PS Cherry Lips n Floral Gums rule!

Boring answer coming up...

The market has dropped for loose sweets, cos nowadays the kids save their pennies for their pre-pay mobile phones

..told you it was boring But true, allegedly
