    Shopndrop, you can drink the green tea as it is ( I mean pour hot water into your cup :o) you don't need sugar or milk with the tea as they are totally different kind of teas.

    Green tea can be drunk as weak tea or strong tea depending on your taste. Green tea is good for washing down after you have eaten fatty food instead of drinking wine.:D
    I brought some green tea back from Turkey - it's great, really seems to help digestion :D

    Morning all - just done the school run, chucking it down here!

    Morning Everyone. Blue is going to check out jeferey's stores today:eek::eek::D I have an ebay parcel to deliver, so I thought I would use the Special Delivery cost to pay towards my petrol and go on a shopping trip. Hopefully your Sainsburys are more coupon friendly than mine;) I will check out Asda and Tesco as well, see if I can find any of the 1p stuff in a diff Tesco seeing as don't seem to find any in mine.
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    Pinecone is a survey website where they send you the survey for you to complete it and in return for your time, they send you a fee max £3 (in my case) either luncheon voucher or paid into your paypal a/c. I opted for vouchers as I don't trust paypal.

    They are actually really good with their paypal - I usually get it next day! Mind you - I then end up spending it on ebay! :p Vouchers are probably more useful for every day shops...

    Blue needs some cooking advice:o:o
    Finally opened a box of oatso simple porridge yesterday and read the packet/instructions. It said fill up to the line with milk and cook in the microwave for 2 mins. I assume I did it wrong cos it then spilt all over the microwave:o:o:o:eek::eek::eek: I knew it was a bit dodgy but I thought I had balanced it well.
    Are you supposed to empty the packet in a bowl, fill up to the line with milk and then put that in a bowl? That's the only way I can see that it wouldn't spill all over again next time, but it doesn't say that on the packet like it usually does on stuff.

    Morning blue :)

    Yes you empty the oats in to bowl, then use the packet to measure milk to line, then pour milk in bowl with oats, then microwave.
