Hic Iacet

There is something faintly Hogarthian about eating a wine gun with 'gin' stamped on it.

Of course, this was preceded by some minutes of confusion about why the first gum to come out of the packet had a word on it at all, not least when it said 'hook'. My dear kind boss, original supplier of said treat, patiently explained that it did not in fact

I spent much of my childhood convinced that you actually could get drunk on Wine Gums. They don't seem to taste half as complicated these days as they did.

Maybe like Smarties they've removed the artificial flavours. I'm so disappointed in Smarties these days. I wonder where they got the idea for Wine Gums from. I sense a good Wikipedia-ing coming on.

I'm just bemused that you've managed to get to the age of 25 without realising that wine gums all have wine names on them... I fear you've led a Very Sheltered Life.

I was unfortunately deprived of wine gums growing up. It was a terrible deficiency.

It could explain a lot of things.... ;)
