Bath Cubes

Can any of you golden oldies remember the name of the bath cubes that you could buy in the late 1950s/early 60s? I seem to remember that the foil/paper they were in was a greenish colour and I think the name of the cubes began with the letter H. I can't see anything on the internet. :roll:

Re: What was that song......

You are being very pedantic Roboe. I was too young to remember Ska or Rocksteady which were in the late 1950s so to me it's Reggae music being in the late 1960s as I have already said. Still prefer Bob Marley's version. Oh boy what a day to remember, me, my brothers and Mom & Dad were all fixed ...

Re: What was that song......

Oh my life ladies :thumbup: Bob Marley has taken me back to the late 1960s at a disco which was up some stairs by the Birmingham Ice Rink with the reggae music which I loved. Happy happy memories :lol:
