How big and much more tasty the shrimps used to be when I was a child. I even have to admit buying them by the box from cash & carry using my parents card.

The Pink Shrimps which I loved used to be made by Barratts, in my hometown Royston, Herts. I always looked forward to the days when these were being made as their delicious smell would hang over the town all day. Likewise, when the Sweet Cigarettes were being produced.
