a selection of empty beer bottles.

the albright ale was a new one on my, an amalgamation of Allsops and Brighton brewerys once M&B had taken them over? and released onto the 70's public in a hope they would recognise the two brands ???? i dunno.

Old-school Coke can found in some woods when I was trying to find a mine.

I'm sure it's 25 years since Coke came in cans with a detachable ringpull so it's done well to survive so well outside.

Will blurry old 80's Tennents do for now?

What a blast from the past! We used to dive around Oban a lot in the early 80s and the seabed on the approaches to the harbour beneath the route the Cal-Mac ferry used to take was littered with these Tennants "Sweethearts" cans, presumably chucked over the side. There was bugger all else down there of any consequence so we'd end up standing the cans up to create a trail. *sighs... shame we couldn't do something more constructive with our time really!

found this packet in West Park today and thought of this thread

checked the dates on the back, best before October 1990!

Ha Ha

They were more pub snacks more than mainstream commercial crisps, if that makes any sense?

You tended to find them in social clubs or Bass houses

The snack machine at my secondary school often had King Cut Groovers in it.

 

[DrThompson]

I don't doubt it, they were sort of cash and carry- type snacks that were bought wholesale.

I didn't have snack machines in my school, just a tuck shock, run by a fat, angry women whose sole purpose in life seemed to be to serve as a warning to others.

A very old Fosters can - I wonder which Grand Prix it refers to

I have several of these Grand Prix cans. Fosters brought them out when the Australian Grand Prix were held, either in Adelaide or Melbourne. They were issued from 1986 to 1989.
So this can was from this era, about 23 years old.
