    It's been a while since I saw them now, maybe if you ask the good people over here they'd be able to help you. I know I've seen them recently...

    I'm sorry...
    I was looking for that one...I thought it had dissapeared...so I thought the best place would be food and drink

    Upon the use of google, I chanced across this place:

    And lo and behold the scrolling banner thing. 2 quid for a 4-pack.

    I'm not to keen on buying stuff on the internet.

    Ah, good luck finding them, I can't think of too many places actually to look, those sort of sweets appear to have fallen by the wayside these days.

    Should you happen to locate them let us know.

    I know Spar on Newtownpark Avenue in Blackrock had them last summer. Try all newsagents. There's a sort of old fashioned sweet shop on Angier Street in town. They may do them.

    All these nice sweeties. None too easy to come across these days. I don't think I like them enough to buy an entire boxful of them a.l.a. Musgraves though.\

    Only place I can think to find those little beauties is the school shop....and that's no good at the moment. *sigh*
