Corona !

[nonuffin]

When I was a young kid we lived next door to the general stores in our street. Our house was seperated from the shop by an alleyway and a gate led to the yard behind the shop which wasn't difficult to climb over. Headed straight for the wooden crates that held the pop bottles and sneaked out with a bottle of corona cherryade under each arm. Drank both bottles and took the empties into the shop and got the deposits back, which was then spent on sweets. Silly old trout that owned the shop never seemed to add the loss of the full pop bottles to the amount she refunded in deposits. I feel rather guilty about my nefarious activities now though

I think Arthur was probably a popular name in the sixties. Ours was named after a white cat who ate his food with his paws off the telly.

I should think so too! You're a bad man

We once had the bright idea of climbing over the wall of a local beer bottling place, nick the empties and take them round the local off licences for refunds. The wall was 8 feet high and topped with broken glass - talk about high risk low reward.

Coppers nabbed us coming back over the wall and thick ears were dished out. Our criminal career ended before it had begun

Our blue was called joey.. He liked tea too and soggy digestives mum dipped in tea. Used to sit on her shoulder and talk in her ear etc and watch TV.. Lived for ages.
My dad got him drunk one n year by putting whisky in his water bottle. It just fell of its perch.
