Childhood revisited
When I was a young Bull I loved that old Vitalite advert with the sunflower boogying away to a slightly tweaked version of Desmond Dekker's Isrealite. However, for many long years I had neither seen nor heard of Vitalite (or Desmond Dekker for that matter) and thought that the it had ceased production. Well, rest assured, Vitalite is still about and my girlfriend had some (not knowing of my fondness and actually quite surprised by my enthusiasm for a margarine spread). Here it is. Yeh! And only 86 pence. Look, the sunflower still has it and still has those funky shades. However, I fear that St. Ivels Gold may be a thing of the past.
