"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)

Item 6 - Cydrax (apple drink can) actually looks and sounds like some sort of cleaning product.

I recognise a lot of the names but not the adverts. I'd love to see some of them brought back - would make Sainsburys a more cheerful place.
