I remember getting caught up in the hype of clear cola when I was wee, so I got my mum to buy a bottle (probably Crystal Pepsi). Then I remembered that I didn't like cola anyway and felt like a fool. I’m 36 brother. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left Back Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Who remembers Fresca? Was that not another sugar free effort from Coke back in the day? Loved that too. Back then fizzy pop was a big treat right enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you can probably trace part of the obesity epidemic back to the 80s, where people sold Bon Accord juice out the back of lorries to the schemies of Edinburgh. IIRC they hooked people in with cheap juice and deposits on the bottles? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a can of Diet Coke at 10.00, a 500ml bottle at lunch, a can of sugar free Irn Bru at 15.00, a glass of Diet Coke with dinner (almost 500ml) and at least one more (near 500ml) glass later. Haven't had a fizzy drink since the end of October. Just water for me now, unless I'm having a beer. Was forced on me by my body, but thank f**k I've stopped. It was a proper addiction. Well done. It’s quite a hard habit to break. I used to be like you, just guzzling it for fun. Even at breakfast with a roll, then i realised how much it was damaging my stomach. Like you, i went down the route of timing them, so I wouldn’t have my first one until 11:30am, then 1 with lunch and 1 with my tea. And now i don’t drink nearly as much as i used to of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seem to remember the one that came round our way used quite heavy based big bottles that would probably be classed as an offensive weapon if you walked down the street with one nowadays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gav-ffc Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 No matter how many times I say to her that if she wants me to buy something online could she send the link and not a screenshot of whatever shite it is. Bairns birthday shortly and the screenshots have started to filter through despite the years of my replies being - send the link not a screenshot. For anyone asking why she doesn’t just do it I think the same but then it always goes wrong when she does it or doesn’t read delivery times or where it’s coming from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you have to carry out this task ? Is she genuinely incapable or is it because you refuse to let her anywhere near a debit card ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s something off eBay, last time she tried to order from eBay it had to come from Hong Kong and took over a month as she never checked delivery time/dispatch area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Sitting in the living room ready to go and she'll say "I'll nip upstairs before we go". 10 mins later, I'll ask if she's ready yet because we're now running late, only to get "I was waiting on you". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
