Here's me thinking Sunspan was an "Orange only" drink, but there's the evidence on the ad from 1970, that it was also available in Lemon and Cola. Sunspan Cola??!!!
All those fizzy bubbles must have given me the bends and affected my memory!
G & P Barrie were located at 191 Albert Street.
The last of the soft drinks ads is dated 1968 and is for the Coca-Cola Bottling Plant at 181 Clepington Road. This place had a window where passers-by could see inside the factory and watch all the bottles snaking around on the conveyor belts being filled.
The plant was closed down in April 1983.
All together now...
"I'd like to teach the world to sing,
in perfect harmony,
I'd like to buy the world a Coke,
and make redundancies!"
