i answered a question about childhood sweeties and my answer has been banned, i have no idea why anyone any ideas ?

[laurence2]

Don't know why it was banned, so lets start again, my childhood sweeties were Bon bons, flying saucers, black jacks, pinapple chunks, curly wurly etc etc

Sometimes my answer will appear twice - as though I've clicked the mouse button twice by accident, and the second, repeated answer will show as being banned.

Failing that, maybe there were some words in it which could have been taken out of context as offensive - I've seen things ending in '...c*ck' being asterised-out before now.

[Dizzieblonde]

A special mention for Parma Violets too - and those bubblegums that used to have a little tattoo in the wrapper!

[crete]

if anyone would check the answer you would see their is nothing offensive in the context

I do Mcfluff, they were lovely!!! I loved space dust. It was so cool, crackling on your tongue, pure novelty value!! There were some crisps i used to love too if anyone else can remember them , Bones, and they had Dracula on the front, S & V flavour!!!!!

[mccfluff]

[raysparx]

Pink shrimps, flying saucers,fruit salads, black jacks, sherbert dip ,cider lollies ,lucky dips ,pearl drops (sounds like a woman that does) bazooka joe bubble gum,

I could go on for ages I love sweeties !!!!

[unruliejulie]

i used to adore the cider lollies and also the shandy ones too! they were a bit risque when you were 7, or so i thought!!! lol
Ray, you can still get shrimps but they are so small nowadays like most things! Black Jacks were very nice. added bonus that they made your tongue go black! Can you still get them i wonder???
