What Ever Happened To?

[K9F]

Just an idea but with the recent mentions embedded within other threads I thought it perhaps prudent to raise a separate one to see if anyone may know any information on the following members that seemed to have disappeared or drifted away? It is a shame when it happens and I believe some may drift to Social Media based forums. I don't do social media but do miss the following:

In no order of preference:

Smithy
Trevor the Toad
Andylock
Tash

There are possibly more I need to mention but these spring to mind first and foremost.

This thread is naturally not limited to just former contributors but can relate to just about anyone or anything really.

....for example Spangles and Mint Cracknell chocolate bars for all you old 'uns like me?

Here are some of my old favourites :-

Rhubarb Rock, A Scottish favourite. Looks like rhubarb and tastes like rhubarb too, brings back memories of my childhood north of the border. Never seen it in England.

Soor Plooms, Another Scottish favourite.

Spangles, Old English Flavours, I loved these when I was young, much better than the fruit flavours.

Gold Nugget Bubble Gum. Golden pieces of gum in a cloth bag, yum, yum.

Fireman's Hose Liquorice, Strawberry flavoured liquorice, yards better than your average liquorice.

There are many more of course.

192.com useful for finding people (used myself) Also Facebook can be useful, Tracing people can be time consuming and satisfying,but worth the effort if concerned enough about a missing person.

Think I'll be stopping at the sweetshop in Crossgates tomorrow, they sell old style sweets. I think I'll check it out when on a run.

I don't do face book. This is the only forum I'm on.

Me neither. I am however a seldom visitor to another Harley forum across the pond!

I registered on the international one, but only used it a couple of times. I wasn't that keen on it, not sure why.

Old Jamaica chocolate bars. Eat two and you'd spend the next day on the pot trying to turn yourself inside out.

AZTEC chocy bar.
