An Ice Lolly Blast From The Past..

I went for a five mile walk yesterday and actually had a conversation with someone  for half an hour.  Usually cars whizz past or I get an occasional "Morning"  if a walker or cyclist pass me. 

I arrived back and the wife had been to the German garden centre and beer retailer.  I don't  do shopping much because 'We' have to do every aisle.  I just like looking in the middle aisle, the plants and compost of course the beer and wine bit!

Any road.  Wifey handed me an ice lolly.  Not any iced lolly I might add.  It was a FAB ice lolly.  Well knock me down with a feather and I will go to the foot of our stairs.  I hadn't seen a FAB lolly for Yonks or donkeys years.  Here's  some pics dear readers:

I must be getting old ("you are") because they looked thinner and smaller.  But they tasted the same and  Thunderbirds started playing in my mental jukebox.

Back in the late sixties Nestle brought out the FAB iced lolly to coincide with Thunderbirds.  Back in the days when you talked about Thunderbirds two, had a crush on Lady Penelope, did Parker impressions: "Yus milady".

Things seemed so much simpler then and you were easily pleased with a FAB ice  lolly!

Oh yes.  Fully Audible Broadcast.  That's what it stands for.    They do look smaller though.
