	I didn't actually LIKE Ovaltine. I have never liked milky drinks but I made my Ovaltine last as long as possible as, as soon as it was gone I had to go to bed!

Back in the sixties, we were still 'way behind the rest of the world and were just starting to go ahead by leaps and bounds. Now, we are proud of ourselves! As for you poor 'oldies'! You're babies!

	We are the Ovaltinees; happy girls and boys... I had a bakerlite mug with a funny face on it; an Ovaltine mug mum got from somewhere. It got melted, left it too near the fire or cooker.
