These are the last ones needed to complete the quiz. Can anyone help with these clues to sweets? 1. Where retired people live (Quality Street?) 2.We wouldn't like to like them 3.Old Prigs treat (Parma Violets has been suggested) 4.Lacking dairy produce (butter shortcake suggested but is this a sweet?) 5.Cheat Leslie's 6.A pub with no beer. I think 4 or 6 could be Milky bar. I would welcome views.
Thanks in advance

Milky bar seems more appropriate for no 6 - it doesn't really apply to 4's 'lacking' if milk is in the answer.

A thought for 2 - we wouldn't like humbugs??
Question Author
Thanks FoxLee. I like Humbugs for number 2. As for the Milky Bar I think we were thinking Milk is barred for number 4. But I am really not sure.
4. Butterscotch ( I thnk 'scotch' also has the meaning 'to do without')

Thanks Paul21455. I like your answer. Do you think Milky Bar is good for no. 6
Sorry, I haven't time to think about this tonight!

Have you looked here for help?

but it just occurred to me:

5. SWIZZLES ?? (SWIZZ / LES)
hang on: swizzles is a company i think, not actually a sweet!

Thanks LPP1955
I think your Swizzles fits well. I think there was a sweet called that. I'll have a mooch around again.
Do you have any views on numbers 1 and 3.
Thanks
Just searched this site to relocate this thread and found a previous similar set of questions: have you seen these ?
