    Lived near the Villa me and my mate used to sneak down the back lane and nick half a dozen empty bottles each out the crates and take them to the shop opposite the Plaza and get threepence each on them you could buy a glass of pop in there and we would stand at the the counter drinking it pretending to be John Wayne in the saloon. Cracking times can't believe we would only be 7 or 8 then nobody had a clue where you were.
