Hello! Here's a quiz about sweeties that I did yesterday while on holiday. I added a few of my own, the rest are credited to Russell who gave me a copy of his quiz.

Below are a list of clues to help you identify a sweetie. So picture the shelves in a newsagent minus crisps, drinks, cards, cigs, toys, etc. I should warn you that some of the answers I never really considered sweets (for example, Fisherman's Friend), so please bear that in mind.

Wow, well done guys, only a few left. :D

Alfonse you were close with 22, just not the MILF part ;)

Vampyr, good guess with 18, you just need to link the name of a precious stone with something you can find at a greengrocers.

God knows how you got Marshmallow Timmargh ^^ though I can understand how you got walnut whip. ;P Your answer for number 4 is on there, so give it another try.

38 and 44 are probably too close, 38 was originally Yorkie but I made it Trucker. I'm pretty sure Trucker was a sweet, but cant seem to google it.

Didn't have time to do the quiz, but 2 sweetie facts for you:

1) Marathon is coming back. Well, Snickers are being renamed for a limited time at least. Didn't like the new name anyway.

2) Ordered 2 Mystery boxes from Cybercandy the other day, arriving Monday at work. It's basically a load of slightly out of date sweets from around the world (US, Japan etc) and you never know what you're getting. Did a split with 5 people at work.

Alfonse got 21 :) Yeah I'm surprised so many (at the quiz) also said Trucker. Maybe its a really really old sweet or something, Ive no idea.

So I changed the yorkie one now :D cheers dragonlance.
