Today an interesting gentleman was in the practice promoting some sort of wonder drug for those moaners who get migraine headaches. He was interesting because he was clearly from Ireland with a stereotypical accent which made for an amusing pitch. I could not take the guy seriously. His accent instantly made me think of leprechauns dancing around drinking Guinness. If his pitch was in the form of an Irish pub jingle with a bit of highland dancing involved it would have been greatly improved.
Anyway after my initial amusement at the Irish man I moved onto the main motivator behind my presence in the staff room-the free food. On offer today were Afghans the size of Frisbees, a sample of fruit, some basic club sandwiches and a variety of cheese and crackers. No Guinness on offer, nothing green. This guy wasn’t doing himself any favours. I tried all the cheeses and was impressed with the variety on offer-some camembert, blue cheese and some other random cheese I didn’t know. The Afghans had sacrificed taste for size proving the age old cliché that size doesn’t always matter. The sandwiches were your typical free morning tea/lunch ones of which you can always seem to eat about 8 of them with no satisfaction.
So a standard lunch provided by the Topomax Irish man. I think because of the variety they are ahead of the fibrate company but due to its lack of glamour it does not overtake Crestor which is still leading.
The list now.
1. Crestor
2. Topoxax
3. The Fibrate company
