Yes that is true and even though I did not really like it it just felt good that it was bought just for me
Of course you could also strip the thin wrapping from the bottle. If you looked through it everything was like Avatar. Except it was Orange and not 3D.
We didn't have computers then.

I remember white dog poo.
Teachers.
I remember getting the belt once for refusing to do the lines I had been given for not playing rugby for the school team at the weekend ( I was "picking tatties" making some money instead.
3 on each hand, and one extra for not being able to open the door to get out the room.
I got it another time during art. Our arts teacher had been snowed in so we had 40 minutes to sit and do as we pleased.. Opening her top drawer and lifting out her "taws" just as the head popped his head in the door, "would you like to bring that to me young man" "No sir".. 2 on each hand that time and one up the wrist.
Now that I think of it we had some mad teachers.."OLD GRANNY COWAN" the home economics teacher used to dive under her desk whenever a jet plane flew overhead. "SINKY WATSON" splayed feet and rapid steps are ever so funny to watch.HOT C"CK" our chemistryu teacher got his name because of an unforunate accident whilst teaching first years the art of pouring one dangerous chemical into another.
Oh and if the corridors wern't stinking of the latest experiment in the bilogy labs (usually rotten eggs) we had the unmistakable stench of "MINGER BELL" who had the worst case of BO I have ever had the misfortune of experiencing.

Me too. So much so I used to get a recurring nightmare about them coming to get me! And this was when I was under 5 years old!
Standing alone in the cold bleak room, as nurse hatchett with the spectecles that pointed at the rims told you to remove your underwear, as she cracked the fingers on her ice cold hands.
Now cough..
Now cough..
I remember songs that actually had melodies and tunes.

Thinks back to childhood illnesses...I've had Scarlet fever,Measels(twice) German measels,chickenpox.All before inoculations for them.I'm 53.
I was okay with them all,well no lasting damage fortunately.
