I have always hated cows milk, the fact it was warm made it worse!! Then Maggie Thatcher took it away from us - for a while she was my hero - untill my trade union rep, Labour party member grandad put me right!!Milk at break time in primary school. In a proper tiny bottle that you poked a straw through the foil top. It was always a bit warm where it had been sat out all morning
(Born in ‘71 so this was mid to late 70s)
Oh and getting to be milk monitor and handing out the bottles!
I had that box! And one week it was silver nail polish for the gift which I spilt all over the house phone and ruined itdo you remember the purple box that came with the Sabrina magazine ? I love Sabrina though, I have the dvd boxset haha!
Loved beanie babies too.
It was the prime decision of what cereal to buy, I remember collecting the set of rugrats pencil toppers from cerealToys in cereal
Yum, love fruit polos.Fruit polo’s? I loved them and Rolo Cookies
I nearly died eating fruit polos when I was about 10 as I had been dared to put a whole packets worth in my mouth at once. Went blue and everythingFruit polo’s? I loved them and Rolo Cookies
I changed to own brand ,cheap dog food during lockdown and it made her poo turn white. (Disclaimer- I usually pick up straight away but I didn't know she'd done a poo this time)Someone said White Dog Poo earlier in the thread, I saw some today
When Thatcher took away the milk generally, to begin with, poor children and kids with single parents still got milk. I was one of 4 in my class who still got milk for the first year or so. Massively embarrassing. Not only did she take away the milk she’s fucked the poor kids twice over in the process. ‘71 baby too.I have always hated cows milk, the fact it was warm made it worse!!

I was a '71 baby too.
This change happened so quickly too, my sister is 3 years younger and was shocked looking at fotos of my 15th bday in a restaurant with friends and none of us were wearing makeup, all just in jeans and casual clothes, by the time she was 15 all her friends used makeupPre and early teen kids that actually look like kids. Nowadays they all wear more makeup daily than I do on a night out plus tight clothes and crop tops. When I was 12 I lived in my Gap hoodie and baggy jeans. Speaking of which...Gap hoodies have also disappeared
I am often gobsmacked by how good teenage girls figures are. Then I realise that ours were probable that good too - it’s just that nobody wore skintight stuff then - it was all baggy jeans and T-shirts and stuff so you’d never know what our bodies were like under there.Pre and early teen kids that actually look like kids.
