I miss buying a massive bag of freckles from the school canteen to eat during the day

My mum LOVES them. She's found somewhere that sells then and has a jar of them on the kitchen bench, her pride and joy!

A big bag of mixed bags of lollies from the milkbar for 50c, spending days in the pool in summer and then going to the milkbar for an icecream or icypole, spending about 20minutes choosing 10 or 15c worth of lollies (and it was 'splurging' to get mates cos they were 2c rather than 1c!).

There were also these yummy bbq flavoured chip sort of things and I've never been able to remember what they were called, they also came in a chicken flavour. They were more like a burger ring consistency.

Were they Toobs?

Were they Toobs?

Nah...they were more of the shape of a leaf/curl. I think the chicken ones were around for a bit longer than the bbq.

Toobs - yum, haven't had then since I was little!

Hmmm...I'm not sure! I vaguely remember the name....they were around in the mid 80's, does that sound right? Gone by the late 80's I think! General enough?

I miss the family get togethers. My mum is from a large family. Between her & her siblings they have over 30 "grandkids" (me & all my cousins) all born within 14 years of each other. There were 5 of us born in the year I was born! We used to have a big christmas party a few weeks before christmas were we would all go to someone's house or they'd hire a hall and we all had a blast. One of the uncles would dress up as santa and give out a small present to each child. I really miss that. A couple of times, someone's tried to organise a reunion but with everyone scattered all over the world now, with work & families of their own, it's hard to get many together. And besides it's not the same now we're all grown up.
