5. I will get motion sickness on spinning/twisting rides at the fun fair.
6. How to make Lasagna.
7. The company Bosch is a privately owned company, means it doesn't have shares in the share market and Bosch power tools, (popular in Malaysia) is the smallest division of Bosch.
8. German people spend 70 Billion euro per year for overweight related problems. e.g. Doctors advice, medicine, weight loss stuff etc.
