MWSG at CERN and Escalade
Fri 17 November 2006 12:11pm
I've not been back to annual
Escalade in Geneva since
2001 and I didn't again this year.
But the chocolate cooking pots ("les marmites") filled
with sweets were there in Migros at the airport, so brought one back to show
some sceptics back in Manchester. However, I'd forgotten (didn't know?) that
the yellow and red "fruit pastille" sweets contain explosive
bangers like Christmas-crackers, so I and a very helpful member of the
airport security staff removed the bangers and rewrapped the sweets
one by one...
