我的童年回忆——点人游戏

I wasn't intending to post a blog on this, but I wanted to put something other than blogs on for a change and then UshaSuryamani's blog on childhood Brand Names came along and the memories of my childhood came flooding to me. Whenever I post something on Sulekha as an instant response to something that I have read, I worry that I may not lose all the content as I put it directly down on the editor. I have lost it hundreds of times but I haven't learnt, nor has Sulekha bothered to provide a simple Auto Save feature.

我本来并不打算就此发表博文，但我想改变一下，在内容之外写点别的东西，然后，Usha Suryamani关于童年记忆里的品牌的博客出现了，我对自己童年的记忆涌上心头。每当我在Sulekha上发布某篇文章作为对我读过的某篇文章的即时回应时，我就会担心，如果我把它直接放在编辑器里，我可能会丢失所有内容。这种事已经发生过数百次了，但我还没有吸取教训，Sulekha也没有考虑过提供简单的自动保存功能。

Usha spoke about dead brand names. While I was reading her blog, I worried that she may not miss the cute child that appeared on the calendars given by Phillips, the manufacturers of Murphy radios. My mother would tell that the owners of the business had lost their child when he was an infant and to commemorate him they brought the calendar with the picture of a baby on it year after year. I don’t know if the story was true or not but it brought real tears in our eyes for the poor, cute child.

Usha谈到了一些已经消失的品牌。当我看她的博客时，我担心她可能不会想念那个出现在菲利普送给她的日历上的可爱的孩子，菲利普是墨菲收音机的制造商。我的母亲会告诉我，这家公司老板的孩子在婴儿期就夭折了，他们痛失爱子，为了纪念孩子，他们每年都送出日历，日历上有个婴儿的照片。我不知道这个故事是不是真的，但我们为这个可怜可爱的孩子真的掉下了眼泪。

Some other Ads that I remember from my childhood are Modern Bread-

我记得童年时的其他广告有“现代面包”

It would come with a pleasing ingle- Mummy, mummy modern bread

它出现时都会伴随着一句令人愉悦的话——妈咪，妈咪，现代面包

Morton Sweets They would come packed in boxes which had fascinating pictures drawn from Hindu Mythology

莫顿糖果——会装在盒子里，盒子上印着印度教神话中的迷人图片

Cigarette packets- We actually traded them. The fancier they were, the better barter deal they would fetch and besides that they came with wrap silver or gold foils which were worth their price in gold

烟盒——我们实际上还用它们来交易了。烟盒越漂亮，交换的价格就越高。此外，烟盒上还有银箔或金箔，相当于黄金的价格
