All things Swiss



Mountainous heart of the Alps, Switzerland,
Landlocked land, no navy on hand,
Alpine flowers, Edelweiss and Gentian
Warrant a mention.

French, German, Italian are the resident tongues,
For their yodelling echoes they need big lungs,
Famous icons include Federer, Heidi and William Tell,
The brave St. Bernard and the clanging cow bell.

Biscuit: Kambly Coeur aux Noisettes
Taste test: 8 out of 10
Cost: Pricey from Waitrose in Lymington

  1. The poem was good but I'm more interested in the biscuits. How come I never get offered one?

  2. Thought the Swiss were famous for chocolate rather than biccies?
