    .....ok I bought crackers yesterday and was looking at the back of the box of whats in them. Cool stuff. Got me thinking to one of the things we used to always get in crackers when I was a kid (80's) and one thing that sticks in my mind is the little red fish that are thin plasticky and you put them on the palm of your hand and it depends how it curls on what kind of person you are. I've said this to my mates and cousins and they all think Im gone cuckoo. Do ANYONE remember them? :o

    I remember those they where a transparent red plastic.

    I can't remember anything else about them other then they curled up in the palm of your hand.

    So you can tell your mates you have not gone cuckoo.:)

    Don't worry C there are a few of us out there who know what you are talking about. Where were those people...and what bloody crackers did the get in the good ole days.

    I remember them well, used to refuse to do it cos my Dad would take the pee out of us for the rest of the day if it did/didn't curl!!

    S ;)
