No, they're hard candies in the shape of mini-recorders that you can toot!

Unless of course you're referring to their eventual use in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, which leads us into the maze known as Dick van Dyke...

There was a redback on the toilet seat when I went there last night,
I didn't see him in the dark but boy I felt him bite
etc.......

and

Down By the seaside shifting sand
bitten by a blue ringed octopus was MaryAnn
etc.......

also

I must go down to the sea again
to the sea and the lonely sky
The waters full of noahs
and if I swim in there I'll die
etc.......

You just gave me flashbacks to grade six... Mr Scott used to get out the guitar and play that redback on the toilet seat song so often! He was such a wonderful dag of a teacher.
And he started a choir there. How cool is that?*






*Nice answers only please.

What sort of music did the choir sing?

Was it more slanted to the classics of the prudes or to the classics of the popular, like ones starting:

'Four and twenty virgins came down from Inverness......'
