Which vintage ads rattle around your brain after all these years?

Maybe it's the song or a particular line you remember.

One which leaps into my head now and again, like a welcome stranger is..

'I wish I was in Greenhall Whitley land, where beer is cool and hearts are warm...'

I wonder if anyone ever bought the stuff.

My family never did.

My fave of theirs which, coincidentally was used in the Trebor Softmints advert, was "Mr Soft".

If you mean fresh orange juice, I know what you mean.

When I do have some, I have to add some sugar.
