I don't have to imagine it Davena, I remember those oranges and while at the pictures they used to advertise Jaffa oranges. Now the Israelis are into destroying fruit and olive groves, not theirs of course! Those were simpler times alright.

We were provided with orange juice, every child was, and cod liver oil. We never saw bananas, of course, until the war was behind us. But I remember the name - I thought it just meant Big. And now we are (willingly) required to boycott them. Looking back on my almost-hundred years of almost-constant war, I doubt if we have anything to teach our young people.
