    :A Thank you tweets, I have a lull before the next chaotic episode here.
    Very windy & pouring with rain in Surrey :(

    Got Dad settled with a Giles jigsaw for 10 minutes, his opening back slippers fit :D

    Its very windy here. Been walkies and saw one person a lady who said she had just finished work in care home and was on her way home.

    Happy Birthday to your dad glad his slippers fit.

    :huh:

    Red Bush tea?

    According to my Mum I love it...
    I think it is vile :p
    My tea of choice is Lidl's Assam :)

    So Parents decided to try Red Bush tea. Made some & thought it was vile :o
    But being war babies they couldn't compost the remaining tea bags, instead they mixed one in with ordinary tea bags in every pot of tea they drank until used up :wall: :silenced:

    :o:o:o

    :eek: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    OMG that's reminded me mum drinks Yorkshire Tea and I only have PG Tips here :cool:

    Oh Snap, J feel your distress, I’m a coffee drinker but do take tea now and again. I hate Red Bush yuk, there’s another one I dislike immensely and that’s Yorkshire tea :o. Long live Lidl Assam and OG Tips :T
