Christmas presents

In reply to your question Jonab, yes they most certainly do, including sugar free version. Another one in that ilk is Jakemans, another one designed to blow your head off ! My personal favourite used to be Barnips,  but I'm  not sure if you can still get them.

You can still get them in many retro sweet shops, even here, but don't know if they are still made to the original recipe. I doubt it.

Apparently they are suitable for vegetarians and are gluten free. Another Nottingham company ahead of the times.

Talking of addictions, a Radiographer I  worked with was addicted to Sinex nasal spray. He could get through a bottle a day !

 

Was his name John Anderson (Formerly Wisniewski)? I knew a bloke of this name who became addicted to these nasal sprays as a teenager and last time I heard from him he was still getting through them like they were going out of fashion!

No, that wasn't  his name Paul, but I  don't  know whether I'm  supposed to divulge his name. Not even sure if he's  still alive. Another one of his fads was WD40. Every time he went out in his car, he would spray the engine with the stuff. Somebody told him that it was damp/water repellent.  When he showed me under the bonnet, the engine was swimming in the bloody stuff ! He said sometimes the car wouldn't  start, I  told him I  wasn't  suprised as the engine was flooded with WD40 !!
