Having looked at the links provided by Jon, I can say that they look 
remarkably like Polo's, but seem to come in more bizarre and (in some 
cases) disgusting sounding flavours :)

http://www.hancocks.co.uk/Strange.htm - look under P.

And if you're really curious, then do a search on google for 'polo mints' 
and by the looks of things, you can find any number of online shops which 
will ship polo's (amongst other UK foodstuffs) all over the place.

Followups set to p.o-t.

Bye for now,
