          Tried that, confused the **** out of them but they are slowly picking them up. The trouble is they're slowly getting there and soon that might be beating England...

                Sorry, can buy that in my local supermarket. In fact I can buy Birdseye Custard, Marmite, Bovril, Cadbury Chocolate, Cheddar, Leicester, Stilton and some other British cheeses, Walkers Crisps, English beers, McVities biscuits, etc. Get a Christmas pudding, that might shock them. Although you can buy them in Germany, get this for the office:

                      I forgot our European brethren like fudge. I use to buy lots of that when I was contracting abroad from a UK Sweet shop.
