OP, include pictures of Operation Sweep now!

That is also part of our 'childhood memories'.

Everywhere I went in those days, I saw those guys. smiley

I did but then it was only for adults as we were made to believe though. It was even rumoured then that some big aunties used it for abortion. So, my parents didn't allow us to take it.

For me, it was Krest. Remember Krest? My father pulled a fast one on me by telling me that Krest was 'alcoholic'. I only found out the truth the day I did the bravest thing.

Wait... you knew what abortion was as a kid...? smiley Wow! Lol

When I was a kid I almost had an overdose on krest lol. We had a big party back then and nobody touched the crates of krest so they brought it home and I started drinking it bottle by bottle. After a few bottle I was feeling anyhow and I vomited my guts out. That was the last day I touched that drink.

Huh? Did you understand what I said at all? I said it was rumoured by adults, not me. And if I was there when adults were talking, I won't hear what they're saying? I was smart as a kid and even smarter now. That's why I can still remember and now understand what was being said then. Mr.

What I always hear is that it is the drink for the alcoholic. Like it makes you immune to hangover.

For real

Could that be why my father always mixed it with his booze?

I need to investigate this ASAP.
