Corona

I have two memories of Corona. The first was the pop bottle delivery van that used to call around the street each week. This wasn’t so good as my mother wouldn’t let me buy any, which was particularly unfair as my brother would buy a bottle, hide it and then deny it when I put him on report ! My second memory was collecting empty bottles from a waste area and returning the bottles to collect the deposit from the local pub. I used to do this at lunch time as sometimes I didn’t have any money because my oldest brother used to pinch my pocket money and spend it on Marvel comics. I shall be sending them each a model of this Bus in the hope that they realise how terribly they used to treat me !! TAFF.
