    This never happened back home. Perhaps the food is more corrosive here...
    Perhaps they're all having lunchtime liaisons. Maybe you're the only one missing out on post prandial nookie.

    Brush a few times a day... it relaxes me. I have a rather unhealthy obsession with toothpaste.

    My fave thing is on holiday (wherever I am!!) I have to go to the supermarket and see what they have and if there is anything different to what I already have

    How did you know it was his jobby? Did it have his name on it? He might have been the second customer...

    I remember whilst stationed in Germany that the local Blood Donation Mob came on camp to collect donations. They would normally, I believe, have given out a monetary payment to donors. However, as we were not allowed to accept any wonga, they gave us a Herfy handbag instead (i.e. a Pack of 10 bottles of Herforder Pils). Result!!

    We have a little on-site shop that sells it.

    And a fridge full of it in the office.

    It's not just holidays though is it?

    I'm the opposite. The only thing that really annoys me about living in Germany is that I can't get my favourite toothpaste.
