Re: Milk adverts

Thanks guys - I missed that thread before.

I'd forgotten all about the Humphries, what a blast from the past!!!!! (Didn't that bloke also do the "Everyone's a Fruit and Nut Case....." ads?)

I LOVED my school milk, tiny little glass bottle with straws to stick threw the foil lids. In winter, the milk was often frozen solid in the bottle. Happy days.

I totally disagree about Snatcher doing away with school milk - bl**dy b****h! Not only did I really look forward to my mid morning drink, but for a lot of impoverished kids it was the only affordable source of decent daily nutrition.

At primary school (started 9/1982) we had those small (1/3 or 1/2 pint?)bottles about once every 2-3 weeks, & they were available at the canteen of my secondary school into the 1990s.

Re: Milk adverts

The milk cartons I remember at primary school (early 70's) where a white "pyramid" type shape, with blue writing on. You had to drink the milk through a straw - the hole for the straw was covered with a blue sticky tab. The other thing I remember was taking in a penny so I could buy a mint yoyo biscuit at playtime!
