If I were fluent I could likely translate into Danish, but since the rule is English only on the board, I think "As opposed to a Danish Carlsberg" is the best I can do.

At least it's clear you didn't plagiarize that remark.

On a more positive note, they just opened a Timmies in Dubai last month. I think I heard you need a million bucks for a franchise? We had a Timmies in Afghanistan when I was on my tour

When my OH was in Afghan they had removed the 'Timmies' because they were getting 'Tummies' :)

You are right about that....it turned out folks were stuffing their faces, and forgetting to workout, mostly the logistics types that had desk jobs :thumbdown:

Walmart (at least the one near me) has just started stocking 'British Groceries', you can get Polo mints, Yorkshire Tea, Club Biscuits, Roses Lime Marmalade, Branston Pickle, my personal favourite - Twiglets, and lots more stuff that I had completely forgotten about. Prices seem pretty reasonable too. I have always been one to adapt to the products on offer here - but I must admit to having slipped the odd club biscuit into my trolley.

As has ours - I have to admit getting a little giddy on seeing rather generous-sized bars of Dairy Milk beckoning me from across the aisle :D and the Canadian OH nearly wet himself seeing an extra large jar of Branston pickle. Lol.

I've happily accepted groceries over here, but sometimes, just sometimes, there are times when a bar of dairy milk and a cup of yorkshire tea is required... nom nom!

All times are GMT -12. The time now is 9:24 pm.
