Sherbert Fountain

I'm sat here eating, if that's the word, a Sherbet Fountain for probably the first time in 25 years and it's not as good as I'd remembered. I'm sure that it's way smaller than it used to be (yes I'm aware I may have grown during the last quarter of a century) and the ratio of liquorice to sherbet is skewed massively in favour of the sherbet. I like sherbet but without the liquorice to access it, it's redundant within the snack.

Overall, a nice drop of nostalgia but it's no Topic to be honest.

Next week, those paper U.F.O.s with fizzy shit in 'em.

    What was the bar with a sort of thick peanuty center? Starburst or something like that. Took 2 hours to scrape it off the roof of your mouth. Those were the days....

    Got to love the ufo's though. They were one of my faves along with the "cabana" bar.

    They've started selling Twix's here in Brazil now, so I may take a trip down memory lane and buy one (shame I haven't got any pg tips to wash it down with)
