    Now this will really test your memory.

    The flexi plastic ones I think some were coloured red. They were cool.

    Cruel, but everyday is a day closer to a win.

    What about:

    Buttercup Bread.
    Petra Orange Juice.
    Black Jack chewing gum (I loved that) came with a tattoo as well.
    Spurt chewing gum.
    Metro Gum (with the star on the wrap, Metro gum won't leave you flat!).
    Metro was made by Scanlens who did the original footy swap cards for both ARL and VFL.

    and the Milk Man. Who killed off the Milk Man? Did they all get caught in the act at once?

    Remember, "Streets" Have a Heart. Then there was one that was vanilla with choc coating and had two sticks. What was it called ?

    I love Streets. The company was formed in the Wollongong suburb of Corrimal where I grew up. There was a twin stick one as you mentioned. I remember one called "Splits" but I can't recall if it was that one or an ice block version.

    Steets Two in One. My sister and I always got these as you could split it into two ice-creams, less cost and less mess in the back seat.

    I have a NOS Red '70's Coca Cola Championship Yo-Yo. I always dreamt of getting a Black Super Championship version the cost was out of my reach in the 70's.

    In the 'gong we could get our local stations and the Sydney stations if you had the right aerial and were lucky enough to live in the right pocket that received good airwaves. Of course the local channel was WIN4 which today is the largest television network in Australia. WIN = Wollongong Illawarra Network.

    Before Bobby Fulton signed with the Sea Eagles he was playing the Illawarra competition were he grew up. Quite a player. My first collection of footy cards was the 1974 set (which I still have). I have since collected the 1968 sets 1969 and 1970 (though I yet to complete the 1970 set). No Scanlens cards 1971-73.

    "Two In One" was actually a Peter's Ice Cream brand I believe. It was common for Streets and Peters to produce similar Ice Creams. I remember there being the Streets Heart and the Peters Heart, Cornetto vs Drumstick etc.

    WIN = Wollongong Illawarra NSW (not network). The call-sign for all TV stations in NSW had 'N' as the last letter, all stations in Victoria had V, Q for Qld, S for SA, W for WA, & so on.
