I liked spangles but preferred Opal Fruits. I think they were advertised as being able to quench your thirst but I used to feel thirstier. I think you were able to buy a packet of, all blackcurrant Spangles, at one time.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww they bring back memories. and what about love hearts, and they are still going today, can you remember the buzz when your 7 and upwards, and that special one in your class passes you the "I love you" love heart. such sweet memories.
Yeah I remember Spangles - they were fab! Unfortunately they were re-launched in the late 80's or early 90's but were horrible, so I guess were withdrawn.
We also had a gorgeous tortoiseshell cat called Spangles too!
I also remember Pacers. Like mint flavoured opal fruits. I remember they were pure white and then all of a sudden a couple of green stripes were added to them.
they relaunched spangles when i was a kid and got those two men off live and kicking (rly cant remember their name) to advertise them.it was simon and somebody. i really liked a pack of sweets and cant remember the name but they were little square hard boiled ones in different flavours and the green one was watermelon

You mean Trevor & Simon.
The hard square sweets wouldn't by any chance by Tutti Frutti's would they? Dunno about the green ones being water melon. They were around when I was really little in the 70's, I would have said lime if anything. Don't even know if you can still buy Tutti Frutti's????
Tutti Frutti's! They bring back memories too. Come to think of it I don't recall seeing them lately. Mmmmmm, Guess I'll be keeping my eye out when I go to the shops later now.
