What about 'Ayds' biscuits - as part of your diet, I believe.

We are the Ovaltineys,
Little girls and boys;
Make your requests, we'll not refuse you,
We are here just to amuse you.
Would you like a song or story,
Will you share our joys?
At games and sports we're more than keen;
No merrier children could be seen,
Because we all drink Ovaltine,
We're happy girls and boys!

I never liked the stuff...........but the little girl on the advert looked just like me!

Fancy a coconut?
I’d rather have a Bounty.
Bounty brings you tender coconut.

Here you go Ice, shoulders back, deep breath and sing........

A finger o' Fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat,
A finger o' Fudge is just enough until it's time to eat,
It's full of Cadbury's goodness, and very small and neat,
A finger o' Fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat.
