I remember it well, and I remember thinking it might’ve been better to keep that particular flavour in. But then I’ve always been fussy about tea.

I’m surprised that you have hard water, Twellsy.
One/I always think of well water as soft

Our well is 100m so the water has found its way through Clare shale and limestone so it is hard very very hard

Ours too. We switched to bottled water because it was cheaper than descaling the kettle at least twice a week. Or replacing it.

Flump
Have been into town to collect some white vinegar from the zero waste stall, & cheese from The Cheese Factor.
After a brief Flump in the car, I drove to a local ‘anything from shit to string’ shop for some Stardrops, but they were closed.
Sigh
Tonight is The Urine Vision Song Contest. When it coincided with Red Cross Week, it was the Carinthian tradition to have a Chinese Takeaway & relax.
Snot Red Cross Week, but in a nod to tradition, I bought some stirfry veg ready chopped, & will have it wiv chicken.
Don’t tell The Oaf…

I think I’ve discovered a new side-effect of the AZ vaccine - it can turn you into a potato.

I think I’ll change my mind and feel like some other sort of vegetable instead. Er, are there any you don’t like?

Not when suitably fried, that I’ve met…
(The deep fried Tunnock’s Caramel Wafer taught me a lot about the melting point of caramel, mind.)

The stir-fried chicken & vegetables was delicious, so I will refrain from commenting…

I most definitely do not feel like a Tunnock’s Caramel Wafer.
Actually, I’m not too bad so far apart from extreme can’tbearsedtodoanythingatallitis and a sore left arm. Which is odd as I was injected in the right one.

Overcompensating?
Wouldn’t say no to one, myself.

More just being my usual awkward self than overcompensating, I think.

Fecksakes, it’s cold here
Yesterday I bought a packet of ‘economy’* bread rolls at The Cheese Factor. Today I have had to use scissors to open the cellophane packet!
*9 soft white rolls for £1
Very Ornery bread, but good in that it keeps well, & I can freeze them individually.
