We never watched it in our house.

As kids we only drank Ginger Beer and Sasparilla delivered weekly in stone bottles by The Man.

We had a pop man too :o, If I remember it was Alpine. We had 6 bottles every week, Dandelion and Burdock, Cream Soda, Cherry, Lemonade, Orangeade and coke.

That just brought back some memores :)

Thanks :)

Not easily found it here, probably in the British shops selling british goods if you can find one near you they may have it but more costly. In Toronto area I find it more multicultural similar to London in that way, and can find more British goods in the asian supermarkets for less $ than the British ones will sell for.

I buy that frozen juice, minute maid at walmart, no thrills etc, it is less than a dollar for a can and like quosh you dilute it with more water, it's as good as Robinsons if not better.

There is a Dollarstore in Okotoks AB ( near Calgary) they sell Robinson Squash in there $6.99 a bottle. English people run the shop, they also do other flavours, Peach, Orange, Orange & Pinapple, Apple & Blackcurrent.

They also sell Bisto, Birds Custard, Walkers (sorry chips). Also a few other things.
