I miss tab. And that Tizer Ice that was supposed to taste cold even when it wasn't, but just tasted of chemicals.

Panda pops are fantastic in every way possible - from the sheer joy of blue rasberryade to the wrong-but-fantastic candyfloss and toasted marshmallow drinks (They DO exist and they DO taste like candyfloss or toasted marshmallows, but made fizzy)

Red bull pwns the LOT though.

Oh dear, it appears to be broken now :( You might have to download the image and upload it somewhere else (have a word with the boss, he might let you stick it in a HL gallery somewhere).

Another message board I am on allows them and it is really, really boring wading your way through them all.
QB speaks the truth!

Never tasted it but reliably informed by a Geordie (maybe not north of the border but north of the Watford Gap and therefore north of the border as far as my parents were concerned) that it tastes like rust!

Always wanted to try Cresta - but only allowed dandelion and burdock, or ice cream soda from the van that came every week - and we got 2p back for the returning the bottles

On Saturday we are having a gathering where all the guests are supposted to bring knock-offs of Dr Pepper. See http://www.marion.ohio-state.edu/fac/sc ... thers.html and http://www.fakedrpepper.com/browse.html for more details on varieties. No really reason why, but no real reason why not either. ;D

@ d00mw0lf: TaB is available at a few shops in the area. If you really want some (and are willing to pay international postage for shaken up cans), let me know. :urff:

If you vigorously shook their "Iron Brew", it would turn exactly the same shade as thier orange squash! Then if you opened it straight after, it would shower the ceiling. My mother didn't see the funny side though.
