Back at kampong in Lubok China, we had sarsi and oren bottled drinks with no labels. Just brown bottles half the price of the 15-sen Coca-Cola. Man .. those were the days.<BR/><BR/>I still celebrate Deepavali with friends. Not necessarily Indian/Hindu friends. Three Melayus or three Chinese can still celebrate Deepavali! But the "usual" bottled drinks never had been the three you mentioned. Nor will it ever be.Rockybruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187242806213153913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3026991266397572875.post-41757292612551240132007-11-08T04:26:00.000+08:002007-11-08T04:26:00.000+08:00That was so sweet :) May this festival of lights b...That was so sweet :) May this festival of lights brings the flicker of hope and success to everyone!puvananhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06232173150017278864noreply@blogger.com
