I drank it and am still very much single

Tokskob2008:
I just love the Limca advert back then, the song was very catchy...

All you need is to drink limca
Lime and lemonade drink limca....


I love that advert way back!

malikombi:
Yeah....Afri cola....
I've forgotten the name of their orange brand

Bluna! We still.get twenty crates of these drinks in our house.

Who has the lyrics or video or even a link for this advert. I have been craving for the lines for ages. *** O gre gre gre limca. My body join together...***

fineboynl:
didn't mention willie willie movie

[color=indigo]There are others I deliberately did not mention to avoid a lengthy post. Willie Willie gave me sleepless nights, Superforce (superforce will be right back....just before a commercial), Sesame Street, SuperTed cartoon, Kunta Kinte, C.o.c.k Crow at Dawn, Voltron: Defender of the Universe, Ovide and the Gang cartoon and the list goes on...[/color]

Medianna:

Abi I was not in Nigeria by then?
(Just thinking aloud)

Lilfemzie:
Omo! Tastes better than Maltina. Twas the same price even!! I was born in 94 but had the opportunity to taste it before it went into extinction. I ask most of my peers but they don't remember this drink

Lol I didn't have a lot of Dr Pepper's because I taught it peppered until it was close to going extinct. I still remember how my dad begged me to just try a sip that night, and after that sip, every other time na Dr Pepper every Sunday evenings

wow!

E b like say na city you dey that time.

Ha! I haven't seen any of these bfr... would love to taste one of dem though.

You came late
They no longer exist

Many people are single by choice.

Kevinsamba:
It's still around o but rare
I remember taking it last year and it's still very nice.

I doubt it'll be like the Limca of old sold in bottles. Of all those drinks listed by OP, I had soft spot for Limca cos of the taste and feel when served chilled. The thing is I no longer take soft drinks because of the chemicals, sweeteners, colourings etc. they are mixing and calling it beverage. Instead I opt for canned wine drinks or hibiscus drink.

Was just nodding my head reading through but at the point of "PS I Love You" I couldn't stop myself from commenting, Good sweet innocent old days.

DBN nightshift. Cabletel. Moonlightening. Cosby show. Fresh Prince of Bel air. Sesame Street. Dr Who. Rent a ghost. Frank Spencer. Beyond our dreams. The Rich also cry. No one but you. Voltron. Super force. Robo cop. American boy lost in London. The never ending story. Willie willie. Blood money. Living in bondage. Clash of the titans. Speak out (the debate program for kids). After the Storm. Magnate. Naughty by nature. Bobby Brown. Billy Ocean. Touched by an angel. Alice in the wonderland. Mind your language...
Children were children then. Teenagers were teenagers not ritualists. Mike Okri exhorted kids in his song, hear your mama hear your papa, life go better for you.., Christy Igbokwe of blessed memory sang out too, 'omo mi seun rere ki iya dara o...' Sunny Okosun too. Healthy songs that parents and kids could sing together without offence. There was no Davido to initiate bumbum challenge over 1 million naira. Yes, we had a Fela, Abami eda of blessed memory, his songs were radically constructive, pointing and calling out the ills of the era and powers that be. I can't forget Okonkwo in Things fall apart. Pete Edochie will always be a blessing to this Nation.
Money had value then, but the people upholded moral values still. Today people value the money that lost so much of its value and threw away the core societal values that hold a people together and guarantees a legacy to secure the future.
There was a country.

[color=indigo]This post is golden. Mehn....Speak Out, chai...Frank Spencer and his wife, Betty...wow....all of them...You have said it all. Those days are treasures of time.[/color]

Lime o' Lemoni Limca!

Always coming up during super eagles matches.

tubolancer:
What about Greensand? Cant get the spelling.

Yeah, Green sands shandy drink.

omonighoblessing:
As at 2015 when I left school (fed poly Oko), they were still selling limca there for 50 naira.
I use to buy limca and moimoi 100 naira. Na our correct snacks be that for that year. You might as well replace the moimoi with meatpie 50 naira.... You know that meatpie wey na carrot dey inside? Yes that's it. Or egg rolls 50 naira.
My own alternative was wither eggroll or moimoi with limca.

did you mean 2005 or 2015? Because as at 2015 egg was not sold below N50 not to talk of eggroll.

i drank Gold spot and limca den

I don't no y they stopped producing Tandi....the drink maddd gan....like a more quality Malta drink

limcar:
I took a break

When are you coming back

flokii:
Gold spot bottle wey carry weight pass the content..
BTW What happened to Limca? it was still around up till early 2000 and just disappeared like that. I remember putting Limca in ice water nylon for ease of movement.

Limca is still much available in pep bottles

MadeINchenzen2:


Only those born in the 70s, 80s and 90s can relate
