Without the belt and braces, your pants fall down?

Normally one or the other is enough. Wearing both is 'more than needed" but does work as a safety net. :)

Oh wait… PANT & pants… So was being a bit slow! 😂

Your pant is actually a deposit.
And we have it in Germany as well called “Pfand”.
Last time I bought something in such a bottle it was atrocious and stabbed me.

True, true it is just a deposit, but it certainly helps. Compared to England where I lived until I was 38 there are far fewer bottles littering the streets here in Denmark, although a lot of that can be put down to general public attitude probably. Never had a bottle stab me! Sounds like a case of bad quality control.
