    This is very interesting....

    If you assign the position in the alphabet of each of the letters of Fox, you get 45 (F=6, O=15, X=24)
    If you take the last four letters of Bauer you also get 45 (A=1, U=21, E=5, R=18)

    Extraordinary.

    Everyone knows about Fox's Glacier mints, but there also House of Bauer mints. And, we wonder, is Mr Murray connected in some way?

    I should remove the word 'interesting.' from this posting.

    A pedant writes:
    And the word 'fact'. You listed three items, so your post should have said 'facts'.

    Backnang could easily become Nackbang after drinking heavily.

    Backnang sounds like a sporting injury, Igor's return to first team action has been further delayed after the striker picked up a Backnang in training.

    This would only be relevant to this thread if those chocolates were Fox flavoured.

    One of my customers is called Bauer Fox. Never thought about it until now.

    Actually, his business partner is called Diarra Solly. Coincidence.

    Since 2012, Chelmsford is a city, not a town. Frankly I'm surprised it hasn't binned Backnang (which is a town) for somewhere with more status.
