Don't know how much Dutch you can pick up with QS, but surely English is spoken around the races all over. You have to give it to them, today's cyclist do make an effort to learn a few language here and there.

Tinfoil.

Though it is also named 'silver paper' directly translated from Danish (sølvpapir)

Yeah, in Dutch we call it Zilver papier. I just directly translated it.

 

[Parrulo]

just call it aluminum paper you fools because that's exactly what it is

if you ever have a leak on a pipe either or sink or whatever just use that and glue roll it really tight as perfectly as possible and you get yourself a perfect isolation that will outlast your great grand children.

 

[RedheadDane]

Would've loved to see Swift's face!
