Brilliant Service
I have just received my first order from you and felt compelled to contact you and say thank you so much for the brilliant service.

How wonderful to be transported back to my childhood by the familiar aromas of all my old favourites, especially the Grays Tea Cakes, which my Nana used to sell in her general shop so many years ago.

Also the Toffee Swirls which my other Nanny used to give to me and my sister every Saturday as a treat.

It closes at midnight on 30th September 2008... and we'll pick the winner soon after.

we have brought back old favourites!
Remember Crispets? And Chelsea Whoppers? What about Lucky Tatties? Well, just as everyone thought these old traditional favourites were long dead and buried, we've brought them back! We swam vast oceans, and climbed mountains to find them and here they are!
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.
