N.B. This was the mid 1980s, where a pot noodle and a can of quattro was considered a decent lunch...

I remember Quattro. It wasn't bad stuff as long as you didn't look at it.

No Sunny Delight? 🤔

That was the late 1990's - I remember because SWMBO kept getting patients referred to her who had turned orange. Apparently it was the beta-carotine in it and if you drank more than 2 litres a day you started to resemble Donald Trump.

We had them around the back garden instead of a fence.One day we were invited for dinner. At a pals house,we decided to walk so we could have a drink.Well we walked past a house that had done the same but many years before.The results were hideous what a mess,some had gone Brown because they had been cut wrongly,others had bald thick trunks,awful looking hedge,a pulled all ours out very soon after,once you lose control you are lost.

Next door neighbour planted some along our south boundary. Subsequent neighbours kept them down to 7' but the garden was only 15' wide.

Who in the world would drink 2 liters of Sunny-D? Consider myself lucky if that was all that happened. Mixes well with vodka.

I can't remember a winter when Boston didn't have snow. 2020 was the second lowest at about 17 inches over the winter.
