What about the naff theme tunes to Robin Hood and William Tell? Used to love ABC minors and I was a brownie and a guide. Anyone ever go to guide camp at
Holton-le-Moor in Lincolnshire?

Talking of sweets, what DID happen to Spangles? And those lovely Fry's chocolate cream bars will all the different flavours in? My mum used to pinch the orange one!
