Babycham and Cherry B!! Wonder if that will ever come back into fashion
I remember when I first started working in pubs, a guy used to drink Rum & Pep - it was rank! He used to down them like there was no tomorrow.

Birkenhead Brewery Bitter. 1/5d per pint (old ginch). Real "Hottin Lads" Ale. 15 pints of that and you were still able to ride home on yer bike.

Wasn't Moorhouse's a local firm? Think they had a factory somewhere down near Birkenhead Central.

Have read that Moorhouse factory in Canning Street and possibly the same one as Taylor Street

You're probably right Derek. Don't know why, but for some reason I thought they had a place down by Thomas St.
