Sad to think that kids nowadays will never know the excitement that the Bon Accord lorry coming down your street brought back in the day🙄 

And the cool lorries used to deliver it. 

Freezing cold bon accord ale, delivered on a Friday night.

Pineapple was a particular favourite of mine.

No, it was an old Cadbury chocolate brand.

Going back a lot of years with that one.

You can buy it in B&M or at Amazon

Was going to say cheeky basterd I’m not that old I remember buying it relatively recently in Bruce Millers.

Then looked up and they’ve been closed 15 years 😳

There is a new Old Jamaica under the Bournville  range but not a patch on original.

If cadburys dont pick that for their ad campaign you might be able to sell it to viagra

I already came up with:

"Life's hard. When it's not, use Viagra".

I still haven't heard back from them.

I had one of those Star bars that people were mentioning earlier.

It was okay. Like a Boost but without the biscuit.

They predate Boost, but in the 90s were rebranded Peanut Boost.......before they saw sense and put them back to Starbar.

"It was okay". Nae taste. I thought better of you.
