Use 1 to keep the window propped open in your make shift HQ as they often stick in those balmy summer Iberian nights. Also makes it easier for a quick escape out the window after the Spanish forces have routed your army and they are coming into town to get you. Ole'! |

Use 4, end to end, to see if you are as tall as your Emporer. Oh yes, this is great fun ....! |

Attach one pair of white lacy Marechal's underwear (preferably unsoiled) and wave when surrendering to Coalition forces.

I let my toddler teeth on them. They are not worthy of the attention of adults. |

I personally use them to mash cockroaches and other sundry vermin that invariably accompany the arrival of La Grunge Armee. I have hopes of catching Nappy B in the open one day and crushing the life out him with one of his personally endorsed Big Blue Bug Mashers. |

Singen!?!  Singen!?! (ja, heir it kommen) Come all you jolly fellows and join us in song, Let thunderous harmony sound. For if men can still sing then the world’s not so wrong, And the rafters will ring in a round. But a man cannot sing if he’s troubled at heart, As melodies over you steel, So bring us a drink and we’ll each sing our part, And our voices with clarity peel. Bring us more ale here and without fail here. We’ll go on singing till each song is sung, Pass round the jugs now; fill up your mugs now, We shall not stop now that we have begun. And if you have a song sir as we go along sir, You’re next to sing but you’re never to think, We’d let you sing dry sir that’s a foul lie sir, A drink for each song and a song for each drink. Well the first is a song of the great raging sea Let thunderous harmony sound And the far foreign lands that our sailors do see And the rafters will ring in a round And the next is a song of green meadows and fields As melodies over you steel Of the farmer and the ploughboy and the earth’s bounteous yield And our voices with clarity peel. Bring us more ale here and without fail here. We’ll go on singing till each song is sung, Pass round the jugs now; fill up your mugs now, We shall not stop now that we have begun. And if you have a song sir as we go along sir, You’re next to sing but you’re never to think, We’d let you sing dry sir that’s a foul lie sir, A drink for each song and a song for each drink. Oh we’ll sing of the wars and the victories won Let thunderous harmony sound And of foes we have vanquished with powder and gun And the rafters will ring in a round But we’ll sing of the widows and the sons they have lost As melodies over you steel  For there’s no battle fought without counting the cost And our voices with clarity peel.  Bring us more ale here and without fail here. We’ll go on singing till each song is sung, Pass round the jugs now; fill up your mugs now, We shall not stop now that we have begun. And if you have a song sir as we go along sir, You’re next to sing but you’re never to think, We’d let you sing dry sir that’s a foul lie sir, A drink for each song and a song for each drink. Well now to conclude and to finish our tale Let thunderous harmony sound We’ll sing one last chorus and then sup some ale And the rafters will ring in a round So some other fellow may now take the floor As melodies over you steel And sing us a song may we hear many more And our voices with clarity peel. Bring us more ale here and without fail here. We’ll go on singing till each song is sung, Pass round the jugs now; fill up your mugs now, We shall not stop now that we have begun. And if you have a song sir as we go along sir, You’re next to sing but you’re never to think, We’d let you sing dry sir that’s a foul lie sir, A drink for each song and a song for each drink. Eins Zwei Drei G'suffa!!!
