You'd have to have a heart of stone not to think this was funny...

Sam - is that the BLM delivery?

When I was a boy on holiday I took part in the Pepsi Challenge. Pepsi, it transpired, really did taste better than Coke.

Yet I never did warm to either of the brown American sugar waters, not when Vimto and Dandelion & Burdock were available. In middle age I took to drinking a can a day of sugar-free Pepsi in the summer because the building I worked in was grotesquely under-ventilated and by mid afternoon I really needed a cold drink.

P.S. I think the original Coke bottle is a triumph of design, comparable in its success to the dimpled English beer mug.

dearieme - I don't think I've ever tried Pepsi and I've only tried Coke once or twice. There are collectors of antique Coke bottles, although apparently they have to be wary of fakes.
