Farin Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 S-J: a Fisherman's Friend is a traditional English throat lozenge, with a truly penetrating effect. Sure clears out your passages. german slogan for them: "If they're too strong then you're too weak" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Jane , they are fairly commonly found in Canada and even Japan now , so I would expect you should be able to get them there , too . Try a pharmacy , but they are often in the candy section of other stores amongst Halls and the like . They are truly the BEST lozenges I've ever tried . They do come in some flavors such as 'Cinnamon -Apple ' or ' Icy Mint ' , but I find the original to be the most effective , though not a pleasure flavor-wise . A kind of bitter anise .

Farin Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 just an example for a TV spot "here comes the final proof that 10 of 10 men don't think Fisherman's Friend is too strong" captain asks "well, men? how does it taste?" and all the sailors say "great, fantastic... etc." until... punchline"See? umm... 9 of 9 men don't think FF is too strong" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Meetings grind my gears today. Why in tarnation is it necessary to have 300 meetings a day to discuss what needs to be done? All these meetings leave no time to get done what needs to be done.

blue_n_white Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 What's grinding my gears is 4 straight days of rain after it not raining 4 days the whole summer. Because of lack of rain I haven't cut the grass since early September but now I will have to on Saturday when it's only going to be 55 degrees. But at least I got my health.

Farin Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 (edited) you know the feeling that when you come home on the evening and only then realise that the shirt you were wearing had a huge ugly stain the whole day? and nobody told you about it? I'm feeling like that now only with the exception that while everybody thought it was a stain - it was actually part of the design could I be any more confusing? EDIT: answer: yes I can *ahem* no, my shirt didn't have a stain yes, it IS a metaphor Edited October 25, 2007 by Guest clear as mud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blind-fitter Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Oh, a couple of weeks ago, on a day when I wouldn't normally be at work, I walked the kids up to school, chatted with a few other parents, whizzed round the supermarket, popped in to work to put an extra couple of hours in, picked the kids up, etc. Then, when I was in the kitchen preparing the evening meal, I felt a tickle on my neck. "What's that?" I thought to myself, feeling for whatever bug was tickling me there. Nope. It was the label of my shirt, which, I suddenly realised, I'd been wearing inside out all day.
