    In the sixties we had a "Corona man" deliver bottles of pop each Saturday. I associate the name with the 1966 World Cup - got a delivery while a match was on, and my dad was too engrossed to notice that Arthur (our budgie) was out of his cage, until the little shite flew out of the door as the pop was coming in. My mum posted an advert at the local paper shop offering a £5 reward. A lot of money in those days. Got him back a week later minus his tail.

    We did quite well that year in the football I'm told, so not all bad

    A rather tenuous Corona-related story, but it's all I have
    I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

    Lol we had a budgie called Arthur too. Green one, and he escaped too. The janitor of the primary school caught it and held it to ransom. He got paid and Arthur returned to find a young blue one in his cage.
    Was a bit if a fight and the young one won. He got the high swing

    Corona limeade (the one that glowed in the dark like 'Peckham Spring' water) used to bring me out in a rash, didn't stop me drinking it though.

    I've forgotten why it was Arthur tbh. My sister named him I think so might have been a pop star of time.. Can't remember tho and I could be wrong re sis.

    Poor Artur!

    "Bloody hell, I wish I'd stayed put - first the janitor put me in this cage that smelled of sweaty socks, with the bottom of the cage covered in this awful pink sawdust, then I got home to find I'd been replaced with this little blue chav, who'd shit all over my Tidysan! I tried to reason with him and got battered for my troubles. Still, I hear he has a severe cuttlefish allergy so when he eventually drops off his perch he'll have a lot further to fall. I just need to live long enough to see it"
