I doubt he can speak Swedish. The closest he comes to Swedish is his resemblance to the root vegetable with a similar name.

Guy's,
I may have some bad news ... Discotres and I have been conversing for some time after a recent wheel purchase, and I sent him some chemical alloy wheel cleaner in the post .... It comes in a tube and is a creamy white paste ...
A day after receiving the cleaner, I had a worrying telephone call from him.
He told me he was in his Doctor's Surgery after having accidentally consumed a quantity of my wheel cleaning paste! He said he was preparing an evening meal that required garlic paste, and accidentally used the wrong tube! (it has green and red on it so looks a bit Italian ...)
Yes, I thought it was a wind up too, but his voice confirmed it not to be so and he asked me if I knew what was in it - as there was nothing on the tube regarding content. I didn't know ...
Well his Doctor called treble nine and an Ambulance duly arrived ....
When my telephone rang again, I answered and I spoke to the attending Paramedic (Discotres knows I am a man of the green cloth also) who wanted to know what was in the tube ... I did some searching but found nothing (aren't these things supposed to have a content label on them???) The LAS Para took to him to Hospital.
Since then I have had no contact with him and am getting no reply from my telephone calls etc ...
Discotres ... If you are out there, please respond! I'm sorry about the wheel paste packaging
ps I've also got some excellent tyre wall black lotion (that looks a bit like Coke) if you're interested ...
So he ate some wheel cleaner and called 999. Did he feel ill? Doesn't mean you are suddenly going to croak Global Warming.... I'm luvvin it

Ooo is this like a who-dunnit?
Rabbit Leader, in the kitchen, with the wheel cleaner! What do I win? I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?

Maybe he thought the tube said aioli not alloy (sorry, just been watching Masterchef) at least if he does pop off he'll have a lovely finish.

Alloy wheel cleaners can contain strong acids. It is possible that all his teeth will have dissolved.There's one wheel on my wagon, but i'm still rollin' along, it's the cherokee, they're after me, but I'm singing a happy song
Pity his fingers don't dissolve As you slide down the banister of life
