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.

It is a good one and I suppose it could be accepted but no I'm afraid not :) want to know the answer?

Sweets and cult tv shows is all I'm good for :) Still looking forward to GPs next game quiz. That'll be fun.

Number 39 isn't Milk Bottles is it?

If it is I'l be kicking myself for not getting it sooner - they are nice.

Probably still way off the mark!

And more quizzes would be fun, I'm sure we'll all be doing one soon, the forum will be packed :D

Sure that'd be great :) I hope people have enjoyed doing this one. We seem to like doing quizzes lately on here.

I even fancied doing a Red Dwarf quiz after watching a few episodes on Dave. Like... What was the Kryten's "real" name in the episode 'Back to Reality'?

Now my mind has gone from being confused by one, to confused by three.

So the two new ones are related to one another in some way? If they are...I'm definitely stuck :S

I could do an alternative once the last one's finished, if you like.

It's actually a simple one, but I think it's the "coldstore" bit that's throwing people off. If I change it, it might be too easy.

I have another one for you though hippy, Dark Tree Chopper. It has a sibling too, [B]Juicy Greens[/B]
