Hah! Did not know that one - but I am not much of a drinker anyway. One of these bottles would last for years at my drinking rate, whereas I had to buy 240 packages of my "Fisherman's Friend" at amazon.de (so the transport charge would be acceptable) after they disappeared from Sofia.

Not sure what this is... I remember there was a brand of cigarettes named "Victory" - is it that? I don't smoke since 1992 so I have lost touch, don't even notice what other people smoke.

They're a type of lozenge, similar to Fisherman's Friend. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victory_V They used to contain Chloroform and Ether in sufficient quantity to make you quite floaty if you ate a whole packet. I used to eat loads of them at school. -- Cheers Clive
