LaPtiteBete: I think you did already mention that she was great at massages :)
We call them "hôpitaux psychiatriques" rather than "asiles" (which sound more pejorative)... :-)
Alright, we have dirty minds, fine... I won't deny :-D and, what... you would have the sexiest accent ??..... we shall do a contest !!! >:-| I won't give up "my" sexiest accent title that easily !!... which will be our judge ?... Endre ? :-D
I'd wager he's well versed in matters of sexyness.
EndreWhiteMane: Root Beer is still very popular here and is flavored from the root of certain trees, dark brown and very sweet.
Ginger Ale is, as the name implies, flavored with Ginger, some more than others.
It can be obtained quite sweet or rather dry, The Schweppes you mention is a very good brand, to me however Vernors is better and far more 'gingery'. Quite popular here, amber in color, quite often the choice of non-drinkers to 'blend in' because of the color.
Unfortunately I doubt Vernors is available in Europe, Schweppes, however is everywhere.
We have our own local variant of oldie-timey soft drink, a sort of grenadine red coloured concoction that I can only approximately describe as bittersweet, appropriately called bitter (although no one knew that the word had any meaning other than drink itself) and is said to only be enjoyed by old people.
I happen to like it.
