The Sixties Club we belong to has a club night every Friday, when we play darts. One or two people always bring a tin, box or bag of sweets or chocolates. They mount up so there are usually a couple of selections doing the rounds. There's always one that has liquorice allsorts and jelly babies, as well as flying saucers and, last week, Everton mints!

I remember doing bob a job for the cubs and being given that job to do in a woman's house.
When you think about it knocking on someone's door and going in on your own to do job was a bit iffy.
