Tizer and Jusoda...

What happened..?

Not the same anymore....

It's called "progress" jarvo

Don't like it.

Which Jarvo, Tizer or Jusoda,? I used to like um both but if asked to make a choice, Tizer everytime, Jusoda was a tad sweet I thought

Used to get my Tizer and Dandilion and Burdock from Mrs Bithells on Petticoat Lane after being moidered by Eric for an hour, bless him.

Jusoda was my fave Dandelion&Burdock always gave me hiccups When we were kids and my mum used to give us some money to go and get some pop and chocolate for a treat our Dave always used to get Dandelion&Burdock cos I couldnt drink it so I always bought galaxy chocolate cos he hated it so I had the choccie and he had the pop

dandelion n burdock is the best

What about Saspurella?

Burdock is what sticky-bobs come from.

And dandelion makes you pee.

Pee in beds.

sticky bobs are oft found on sheeps bottoms by botherers I hear.

Sugar stealers.

Who's sticky Bob and why is he?

I liked sarsaparilla as well, we used to get it in the stone jugs, but not from Mrs Bithels, we got ours from temperance place on Ince Bar and wor abowt cream soda,

Used to get Vimto lollies from the Temp, Aitch and home made little red toffee lollies in tin foil like the ones on mince pies.

another thing we always bought was Horlicks tablets

As an option to a cold Shandy on a hot summer day try a Guinness & Tizer. Sounds iffy but tastes gorgeous, you have to use bottled Guinness and mix 50/50. Go on treat yourself. Another alternative to a classic is a Snowball but instead of using lemonade mix Advocat with Ginger Ale, not half as sickly as the norm.

Bingoqueen: yer Dave's not changed much...He still likes the pop...

i like both, but also remember a wagon coming round selling dandilion and burdock and sasspirella in big stone bottles we thought it would last forever, thats if u were lucky enough to get one, and when we got a big bottle of pop from minnies in york st where i lived i always got rasberryade and we would pour it into the skrew off top to make it last longer, but a lot of bottles had like a skrew ln top, i have a murpy top bottle with bartons of ince on it.

You can get sarspirella sticks from the little sweet shop in Haigh Hall, yummy.

I remember the Corona man....

when we go to leigh theres a good toffee stall in the market they sell lots of the old stuff uv not seen for ages i always buy a mix of lollies sarspirella,pear drop ,bonfire,rhubarb and custard,vimto, tuttie fruttie,strawberry and cream,and loads more mmmmmm.

couldn't beat the drinks at Boltons in Scholes,a must after the baths

Remember Lucky Bags and Cherry-lips, 2oz in a little three-cornered toffee-bag? And sweet tobacco and toffee cigarettes? They have to call them candy sticks now, in case they encourage children to smoke...I must have eaten enough to sink a battleship and never once had the urge to try the real thing.

I'll Be Your Dog, woof woof

You can buy sarsaparilla at The Museum of Wigan Life - formerly the history shop on Library Street.

So the 'Corporation' are selling more than one variety of pop now then Jo Anne?

I'll sod-a off.

I remember the Corona man

and alpine man

Limeade - Yuk.

best pop in the world.

corporation pop.

Marks and Spencers "fiery ginger beer" really nice,

I used to get something called Kiko or keeko from Loch St Chippie, lovely

My mum used to make her own ginger beer and store it in the larder, only problem was sometimes at night when all was quiet we could hear the pop pop of the bottle tops when the ginger beer was too gassy!

me n mi sister... ar pat use to go to the launderette across from the king billy in platt bridge, put the washing in and go a few doors down to a shop, an off license cant remember the name? but they sold sarsaparilla in a glass hot or cold....put the washin in the dryers for a bob a time n go back fer another ...... everythn was a bob then... gas lecky telly ....

i think it was called bennets .......

When you said your mum used to make her own ginger beer berylh, so did mine. If my memory serves me right didn't you have to start off with a 'root' which someone gave you and then you started the continuous cycle of making it?

supposed to be good for your tummy ? thats what we was told ......

Yes linma, i think you are right, but i also recall that it could ge carried away with itself and then we couldn't keep up with it, we were practically giving.
yes johnny it is supposed to be good for digestion.
