Do You Remember... Anglo Bubbly?
It was finding this again after years of searching that gave us the idea of starting up the old fashioned sweetshop on the Internet.

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 bars

"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.

the best comic ever?

It was my favourite comic when I was young... and the inspiration for the look and feel of A Quarter Of...

love our cartoons?

He used to work on Whizzer and Chips - the comic that inspired the look of A Quarter Of...

His cartoons appear all over the website. Aren't they fab???

hidden treasures!
Soor Plooms… absolutely delicious and very very fruity – these Soor Plooms are made by hand, and the flavour is… well… exceedingly plummy! They’re also a stunning bright green colour… just as a traditional Soor Ploom should be!
