Oh utterly charming that-not had a boiled sweet for years.
Did you know that in olden times because ingredients were so scarce sweet makers would adulterate their mixture with Allum, chalk or some other powder, which made them cheaper to make and sell.

British toy Action Man was based on the American soldier doll G.I. JOE and we had a rival to Barbie called SINDY but there was also a smaller doll for girls that couldn't afford Barbie called PIPPA. Another doll Mark Strong was also produced, again may have been based on a US doll called BIG JIM(which sounds more like a porn star name ) and he had his own judoboard which he karated in half by having his back pressed-hai ya!

If you ever had a teddy bear you will know how loved and cherished they are. The most well known in this country was by a company called Merrythought and they can go for thousands in really good condition, but the MOST famous was by a German company called STEIFF.

I think they were originally called FRIENDS PETS.
