I do indeed! I worked for their ad agency and was there when the creative team came up with the line/song. We sang it in the pitch meeting to the client...sad.

#If you hear a noise with your milk and your bowl, It must be the ten-thirty Humphrey patrol. In slippers with pom-poms for creeping about, Watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out, there's a Humphrey about! One Hundred Humphreys soft as silk, Off on their search for your Unigate milk. Get extra pintas or you'll be without, Watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out, there's a Humphrey about!# I cannot believe I just dredged that up, without hesitation, from when I was ten! Humphrey stuff was practically a currency for a while at my school, and I was so miffed that we had our milk delivered by Co-Op, not Unigate. You never actually saw what a Humphrey looked like, just their red & white straws

When I was at nursery school and infant school during the early 80s every kid got free milk at breaktime. It came in dinky little glass bottles with silver foil caps and you sucked it out through a blue straw. They were great fun and kids used to annoy teachers by making slurping noises or blowing bubbles. One day I stacked all the empty bottles into a pyramid but it collapsed and most of the bottles fell on the floor and smashed.
