whatever happened to texan bars?

Remember the advert on TV? A Clint Eastwood style cowboy in a spot of bother, captured by some sombrero wearing outlaws. One asks the cowboy, "A last request gringo?"

The cowboy asks for a Texan bar. He chews on it laconically (love that word!) and it takes him so long to eat it that the baddies fall asleep and he escapes!

"Texan... sure is a mighty chew."

Texans made a very brief, limited edition re-appearance in 2005 but we fear they have now gone for good.

Treats for my parent`s 50th Wedding Anniversary

Just to say how delighted, once again, I have been with your service.

I ordered a large box of and other treats for my parent`s 50th Wedding Anniversary, not knowing what else to send.

They were thrilled and, excuse the pun, are like children in a sweet shop.

I have used your service on a couple of occasions and am very happy to recommend it to friends.

Best wishes.

Best Service By Far

I don`t usually give feed back to internet companies but I had to say what a fantastic website this is and you have given the best service by far of any company I have dealt with by far!

I tried everywhere to get some Vimto bon bons for my boyfriend, I was convinced they didn`t exist..but you proved me wrong!

They arrived in super quick time and the price was exceptionally low.

Many thanks for helping me out this Christmas!!
