And isn't a Snickers which makes it a clear winner.

Blast from the past! thumbup

I used to stick pacers to the top of my 'brace' when I was a kid - Im sure the dentist wouldnt have recommended it, but they tasted a damn site better than that moulded pink plastic and metal wire thing in my mouth lick

Complete bks I'm afraid.

There was no Mars Bar incident, during the drugs raid Miss Faithfull did indeed give the Old Bill a quick flash but there was no Mars Bar or other chocolate coated confectionary incident. All very domesticated.

I'm sure snopes will confirm I am correct.

Bear in mind I'm going back to the early 60's but I remember a bar which was chocolate coated nut's on a crispy waffer bed and I'm sure it was called Nux - like a cross between Lux and nuts. No one I even mention them to can remember them. scratchchin

Found it!!!! eek

It goes back even further than I thought, here's an advert for it from 1960 - I was 4! Really cheesey advert but it's how I remember it though smile
