Almost the same as our shop, except for some grocery items and a post office combined. I still have some of the sweet jars. We retired the place in 1983. I used to help out and sometimes I would be weighing out the sweets. My mother would say, "Don't let the - brass sweet - scales bang! That needle has gone to be in the middle - or as near as you can get it" We used to get all our supplies from Hawkes and Slack. Down in our garage we had a full tank of paraffin for stoves and lamps. The shop was started off in 1909 by my grandmother and grandfather.
Hundreds and thousands are tiny sweets that are traditionally used to decorate cakes and are also used on ice cream. You probably know them as Sprinkles.
'Nothings too much trouble. Not even you, Sir' 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
This is ronnie corbetts revenge for four candles
Right at the very end of the sketch, I just noticed Ronnie Corbett's funny half-spins of his head/hat spraying the remaining 100s&1000s around him 😄😄

Thanks for sharing! What a wonderful story :)
@@MeganRuth That big paraffin tank made a very satisfying and echoey bang if you hit it. Mum would shout, "OY! STOP THAT!"
Lovely seeing you react. Brilliant sketch ❤
Thank you! 😊
I love seeing your reaction.
ANYONE WHO HAS WORKED, SERVING JOE PUBLIC, WILL RECOGNISE SOME OF THIS----I DO. BUT SAVED MY FEELINGS FOR THE TRIP HOME.
This was a classic, just like many of their sketches

Great sketch. Thank you for this video. I needed a good laugh today.
You're welcome!! It is a great sketch :)
It brought tears to my eyes from laughing so much.😂😂😂😂😂
Have you watched any Mitchell & Webb sketches?
I haven't! Thanks for the suggestion, though :)
@@MeganRuth They're a brilliant comedy duo. All sketch comedy is hit & miss, but they have a very high hit rate.
Nice to see you smile. 😁
