There were two lagers that counted -- Castle and Lion. You were in either one of these camps, never both, unless you were in a state of being unaware of what you were drinking -- a condition in which Northern Rhodesians never, of course, ever found themselves!

£50,000 in the 1960's was a bladdy lot of money wouldn't you reckon!? Five bob, that's a crown if you remember, was a big deal for us kids, after all, I can remember the glee at getting half a crown, but for our parents it wasn't so much. Anyone know of anyone who won this money? (Picture courtesy of Mervyn Blumberg.) |
