Stealing from the sweetshop always had a certain thrill about it.

When I was little I used to OD on Bazooka Joe bubble gum, cos of the taste and cos of the little comics wrapped round them. But I never went as far as wanting to trade 450 Bazooka Joe comics for an underwater camera or x-ray glasses.

Mind you, I bet only us EBGs remember them- I haven't seen 'em for years and years. I bet it's illegal to do something as irresponsible as sell bubble gum with a comic wrapped round it, due to the danger of little Kylie-Francesca choking on it. Unless someone knows better?

Actually I have a strange memory of sprawling on the sofa chewing whilst unfolding one of the comics. Then pondering what use it was since I couldn't read it yet...

Look at the time of these posts... You can tell it's half term can't you...
