Hi Dawn I like drinking hot Bovril. Used to drink hot Oxo as well. When a young teenager I used to serve in the shop on local football ground, fans would queue up for hot Oxo at half time,but when I make it now it's not the same, very crumbly. Think I remember cubes being quite 'thick and sticky' if those are the right words! We used to buy them on the way home from school to lick.....easily pleased in those days lol Mau xx |
