Sunkist. Drink it in the sun, sunkist is the one.

cavan cola...canada dry 45% extra free

Milltown

"Milk Mate" - it was an added flavouring to your milk. Chocolate added to Milk. Not very appealing now but seemed like a good idea to a 10 year old. Surely the next step in food revolution was to market "Cheesy Peas".

Bonfires in Neighbours Back Gardens - Some Oul fella's on the housing estate were obsessed with this. They were only happy when old tyres, bits of hedges, household items, family members were stacked up and set alight.

A local "Andrex" warehouse burned down close to a neighbours house. Police suspected Arse'in. ;)

Coat please.

Bags of milk given out in Primary school?

I don't, to be honest, haven't set foot in one since I started getting all my provisions delivered in those delightful Fortnum & Mason's hampers. :)

Smash is still on sale. Saw it in a shop yesterday!

What about those chewing gums, Hollywood I think they were called? Or Lipton Ice Tea? Haven't seen them in a good while.
