I think we must have his twin brother working with us, similar cans and bottles. Thankfully he is leaving in about a weeks time. Flys off the handle at the least wee thing, always at the Doctors about not putting weight on, and always running to the toilet. All I believe to be related to his excessive consumption of high caffeine energy drinks. He has a girlfriend who drinks the stuff excessively as well and is not uncommon for her to have to go to hospital with heart palpatations/ irregular heartbeat. And yet he maintains that drinking red bull etc is not the problem.
Lets hope they don't/can't breed.

The MoD are concerned about an epidemic of young squaddies with absolutely rotten teeth.
They are putting down to a high consumption of 'energy drinks' and the fact that none of the brands are buffering the acidity, which is leading to advanced tooth decay at an alarmingly quick rate.

Edit: Red Bull has a pH of 3.0, compared to battery acid at pH1.0. The critical pH level of drinks to prevent tooth decay is a pH 5.5...

Snap! Ours is 2015 and also washed/waxed regularly. Makes the world of difference. Ok being red, it’s not as true red as when it was new but I think both mine and your old one are a credit to hi spec paint and finish.

Out of interest why the brand change? Better deal?
