The most annoying advert ever GO COMPARE

Slightly off topic but remember the white foam disc, same size as the AS tablet, in the top of the Alka Seltzer container in the early days : - and the number of people who thought it was an Alka Selt

Every time I hear it on Talksport Radio I just have to join in "Checker trade checker trade dot com"

:) Anybody mentioned: 'Philosan Fortifies the Over Forties'?

I recall coming across a bottle of this way back in the 60's and wondering what the fuss was all about. I defer from using the well worn cliche: 'Now I know!', instead I'll recommend beans: Cannelloni, Borlotti etc if one gets tired and listless.

PS: Apologies to 'Fynger' who requested that I play 'Word Association' properly a few days back; I couldn't resist the slogan.

Signed: 'Wild Child'. :biggrin:

Our local greengrocer (do they still exist?) had my younger sister in tears one day when she went in to get some bananas - he asked her if she wanted them "with zips, or without"?

She was only about six at the time and came home all confused!

"Worthington E's the beer, the satisfactioneer"
