The "Trivia" bit about Bob Holness is a bit of blatant fiction, is it not? (2006 cvomment)

Dunno, but the new sweeteners recipe is bloody awful. Thanks to stupid government pressure on health and the idiotic public buying into it... (2006 comment)

The Actor in "The Secret Lemonade Drinker" Advert?

[edit]

Can this be clarified. According to the entry on the IMDB was Royce Mills as per the article here, but in a television program on the subject a few months ago, they stated that it was Julian Chagrin, and he actually appeared and spoke about it. He also says it was him on his web site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.29.215.250 (talk) 15:24, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ginger beer

[edit]

I remember they used also to make ginger beer. THey used to do door to door deleveries every month or so during the 'forties. My mum used to buy a half gallon stone bottle each time and we used them empty as hot-water bottles until the next delivery when they would be returned.

I think it is the same company. THere's a website http://historyme.wordpress.com/2012/03/20/r-whites-ginger-beer-bottle-not-just-lemonade/ I've found which seems to confirm it. 2.26.202.133 (talk) 11:35, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Promotional editing

[edit]

The reason why the article was tagged was that some of the wording was promotional. I have removed the weasel wording. Certain types of enthusiastic language can be included if it is a quote from a citation. Thus I have put quote marks around "most famous" because it appears in the citation. Please beware of editorial enthusiastic writing, because it is likely to be taken as promotional editing by a possibly paid employee. Thank you. Storye book (talk) 19:25, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
