Yeah, but it's protein, man. Y'gotta have protein, right..?

Mmm, a tiny bit bottle of full fat milk that had sat in the sun for a couple of hours. 

How to turn someone off of milk for life, lesson one. 

I dunno, being classroom milk monitor was equivalent  then to being on Tic Tac ( insert name of any other social media thang)

[Maude]

Gagging trying to force it down as you weren't allowed out to play until you'd drunk it all. 

If you were the last one you'd have to try and gag your way through it while the teacher stared, increasingly angrily at you. 

Physical, mental and emotional torment, all wrapped up in miniature milk bottle shaped package. Yep, best days of your life. 🙄

We used to get a couple of little milk bottles with orange juice in. It was always a real triumph to nab one of those.

Now you're talking. If they want kids to get the goodness of milk inside them, why not have a cream tea? Much more civilised way of consuming dairy. 

Or a cheese board with nice glass of port.

I'd be voting for an assortment of Polish, Finnish and Russian vodkas with a packet of cigarettes actually. I would have said crack pipe, but sometimes you can overdo it. Plus this is a family forum.

But then you're not getting your daily milk. 

Unless you're talking milk vodka. 😉

If you haven't had white Russian cornflakes you haven't lived.

So there's the selection we should be lobbying for kids to have at primary school. 

Small bottle of milk or orange juice. 

A cream tea. 

Cheese and port. 

Or a White Russian with a Silk Cut on the side.

I wonder what Rog would be saying if he had to sort out the Who crew's visas and get the carnet done?

This sounds horrifyingly familiar - childhood flashback time. Right, I’m off to hide from the bullies.

So the suggestion is that the Silk Cut is a Substitute for cheese?

Not at all. 

Your daily dairy can be milk/cream in your White Russian, or cheese to go with your port. 

You can't have both you know. 😁

Reminds me of the time The Jam and Cream both pulled out of a well known West Country Festival: they could not decide who was to go on first.

But why, though..? Notwithstanding the rights or wrongs of the issue, surely there comes a point whereby one has to accept that it's a Fact of Life, like it or not, and move on..? I'm not suggesting that the cause is not just; merely that, maybe, it's a Lost Cause, and energy expended towards it is energy wasted. A darned shame, but such is Life, no..? 

That's Homer Simpson's philosophy is it not?

If at first you don't succeed..........give up.

In fairness to The 'Oo and all these lyrics being quoted in order to rip the p!ss out of old Rog - he didn't write any of them. Didn't even sing Boris The Spider.

He was always The Thick One.

Aye. I hated the stuff. I was actually very grateful to

Margaret Thatcher

for ditching it.

I know, I'm a bad person 😧 But I was very young, m'lud.
