Lekkers

[georg ruf jr.]

There were so many lekker sweets in SA I missed a long time, because you don't get them here. Some of these I saw in England...

• jellytots (loved sucking them till the sugar was gone. kept it in my mouth as long as I could. sometimes I couldn't wait, sooo... chew, swallow, next one... haha
  chocolate log
  flaky (was my favorite chocolate) plain, strawberry assnd milk flavour
  turkish delight

(wouldn't eat that anymore)

My Fav
Tex Bar
Pepermint crisp
Jelly babies....we have them here but they are not the same....here they are soft and covered in some powder
When ever i get people visiting i get them to bring me loads
Yummmmmmmy

peppermint crips, I take it bite the ends off and suck milk up through the choc, milk tastes like peppermint milkshake then, I know I'm weared, have a lot off funny ways to eat my chocs, plain choc I like to take a piece and dip it in hot coffee then its all melted and soft when I eat it, as for choc logs, that gets taken apart, choc all eaten first then the nougert rolled up and popped into my mouth and last the waffer. Kit Kats they are eaten layer by layer!

Hey Paula, then I must be crazy, cause I like to eat my chocies the same way...as for the Jellytots, like to pop a whole bunch of them in my mouth...Hope we get all these nice sweets in AUS

[georg ruf jr.]

"Nicknacks, so tasty" Lovely cheesy flavour. There's nothing that compares here. The best chips are the British ones. If you ever go to England you'll see. They have so many flavours.... Anything you can imagine.
Biltong. Tried something simular in USA, but it was sweetened. Do the eat anything without sugar???

[Barbara Eia (Brownless)]

You can go online and order most of these from south african shops in england. Next day delivery.

My butcher makes the most divine boerewors had some this week i buy it in kilo's so i always have it in the freezer.

[georg ruf jr.]

I make my boerewors myself. I've even made biltong...

[Barbara Eia (Brownless)]

My brother (who is a hef) makes his own but not very often so have to make sure i have another supplier

[georg ruf jr.]

Barbera, do you mean Stevan, or do you have another brother?

[Barbara Eia (Brownless)]

...... and Chappies bubblegum cost half a cent at COra's Cafe.....

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

Way...way...back in the early 60's , they had what they called the "Tickey Line". A glass covered counter,just high enough for little ones (much like the one at Cora's Cafe) you could get a whole bag of sweets for a tickey. I can still remember how the shop was laid out then.They says the older you get the more clearly you remember the past.

Talking of lekker.........I'm just settling down to 'The life of Brian'.........now that is one lekker film!!!

[Michael Alexander]

Mmmh! Thanks for the idea Rhona, I'm sure Paul has the Monty Python Box set, must borrow it while I'm in this sickly state....

[Rhona]

A marathon session of Monty Python could be just the medicine you need Mike; I probably shouldn't tell you this but while at my moms last weekend I picked you up a few animal bars......and I'm munching my way through one now, mmm! mmmmm! I hope I get the rest in the post to you before I polish them off............he!he!he!
