The lemonade man

[Champ]

How the hell has the Scotch mafia taken over this thread as well???

My apologies. It was quiet overnight at work

[Bjornebye]

Neds.

Not everybody in Scotland pronounces their Js like this, I certainly don't.

 

Fizzy juice is juice though & jags are injections, I think the second one is used more commonly when a child is getting their jags because it sounds less scary than injections. You don't hear people saying they got jags in their mouth when they got a tooth out for instance & when my Mum (who is diabetic) uses her insulin, she calls them her injections.

If I were a bairn I think I'd rather know I was going for an injection. Going for jags sounds like I was being taken to have my coupon ripped if but rabid dugs.

Sounds more like you're being dragged along to a Partick Thistle game.

 

Which is probably worse than having your face ripped off by dogs.

The lemo man now would be someone who comes round to your house to sell you coke (Lemo) on a Friday or Saturday night just before you go out or settle down for the night.

He's called the mineral man.

 

Johnny Vaughan had someone from Armagh working on his talksport show and he used to take piss out of him about calling lemonade mineral.

SodaStream was fucking shit and only overly spoilt, cuntish kids had it.

There weren't many minerals in Alpine or Schofields lemmo.

Remember when I was a kid and went to my mum's mate's house in Widnes and she asked what I wanted to drink and I said 'lemonade'. And she was like, 'do you mean 'lemonade' or some other kind of pop, because I know in Liverpool it can mean different things'.

I love that photo. It's like a portal back to the 70s. Is that a block of soap on top the the Iron Brew Alpine lemo ?

The one kid I knew who had it was super poor and carried a bottle of home made roller cola about with him.

 

Kids used to take the piss because his dad made his own pickled onions but it's something I want to get into

Correct. It was properly embarrassing. We had it because you could save money compared to the branded drinks that everyone else had

I don't remember it like that at all. From memory, Coca-Cola etc. did syrups for Soda Stream. Either that or the kid I knew who had it, bullshitted me.

Dead posh that blackberryade. Green cream soda and dandelon and burdock were my favourites.

[El Rojo]

The Lemonade Man sounds like a shite horror film character.

[Curly]

The lemo by ours is boss lid

[stringvest]

funny isn't it, I used to crave lemonade when I was a kid.  I haven't had a glass of lemo for about 25 years.  Damn you beer!

[Sugar Ape]

Just had a can of Dandelion and Burdock. Fucking lovely.

We never had one of these mythical lemonade delivery men in Dublin. 

 

But funnily enough back in the 80's, fizzy drinks would be called minerals.

Were fizzy drinks the closest Dubliners got to minerals in their Dirty Old Town?

Why would they all be in Salford? 

 

Probably called pop there. 

[El Rojo]

Disappointing thread.

 

When I saw 'the lemonade man' title I was picturing some mythical slenderman or candyman type who breaks into houses at night and waterboards his victims with Lilt.
