>I like how you sidestepped the perennial issue by saying "alu foil".

Actually we usually call it tin foil, silver foil or brand-nameise it as baco-foil (One of the top brands in UK)

We "hoover" the carpet, stick a package by "sellotaping" it, write with a "biro", et al

>And then you talk about dead peas. Go figure.

Oops! I missed the "u" out of "muori" - typo (my eyesight is right bleary today)

poi = then

There is a saying in Italy that goes "Vedi Napoli e poi muori". (See Naples and then die)
