Let them drink Heineken.

Sooner them than me!

One thing I have observed is that washing off their slime trails seems
to disorientate them slightly so that they wander about aimlessly rather
than honing in on the previous night's feast.


I've noticed the same thing with local Heineken drinkers.


Can Heineken really be the cheapest source of alcohol these days?
There was a time when Carlsberg Special Brew (aka "Easy Start") was the
clear market leader, but I notice Lidl's cider seems popular nowadays.
Anyone got the latest statistics?
