pip!pip! overoften Dan Dare would be very proud to hear you say that.I became the intelligent person that I am today with the aid of Horlicks and my Eagle comics…what’s gone wrong with the world?.

well pulling this out of the fire and back to Japan, I would be interested to know of an equivalent Japanese product,that is given around bedtime mainly to children, but also suitable for adults that aids sleep.

(I must away to my home now,it is getting quite late…brew up some Horlicks and settle down with raunchy men’s mag.)

See Ya!!……….:oops:

here is the real terms of ‘Horlicks’:
“The term was used in July 2003 by British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw (”a complete Horlicks”) to describe irregularities in the preparation and provenance of a dossier regarding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.”

‘The product’s name has entered the vernacular as a substitute for the profanity “bollocks”. This was exploited by the company in a 1990s advertising campaign, in which a harassed housewife exclaims “Horlicks” in a context where a stronger term could have been expected’

alexpappas, Horlicks has been around for years and years I was just saying how horlicks has been misused lately.

Good work, that fish.

alex, you fool!

and of course as everyone knows there was Operation Horlicks

that famous Allied landing in Indonesia during WWII to repel the dreaded Imperial Forces of Japan.
