There were few sweeties I didn't like when living in Glasgow, but oddly enough walnut whips were one of them I didn't like. Also Milky ways and fry's cream. (think I only disliked that because of the dark chocolate). One of my favourites was the Cadbury cream eggs and I used to love ones called "treats". When I was over there last year I hunted for sweeties called rosebuds. Went to Glickman's and from one end of Glasgow to the other with no luck. Finally got some in Largs, while they weren't exactly as I remembered them, they were still really good. I then went into a place in East Kilbride and the woman said she had them. They were red and yellow (as opposed to the pink ones I had got in Largs) anyway bought them and they were rubbish. So after that, I kept asking everyone did they want a real rosebud or a kid on rosebud? Greedy beggars all kept wanting the "real" ones.


P.S. Amelia, I know the post charges over there are a fortune, but it was very nice of you anyway to think of us poor ex pats. Thanks anyway!
