I like a nice cup of Tea in the morning

Just to start the day you see

And at half-past eleven

Well my idea of Heaven

Is a nice cup of Tea.

I like a nice cup of Tea with my dinner,

And a nice cup of Tea with my tea,

And when it?s time for bed,

There?s a lot to be said,

For a nice cup of Tea!s

"A Nice Cup of Tea" from "Home & Beauty" Sung by Gracie Fields Rex 9114

Tea, tea and tea - coffee rarely. Yorkshire used to do a Kenyan (Sainsburys had it) but can't find it now, I like Birchalls and like a dabble with a black Lapsang and a milky Chai now and then but good strong builders is my pref.


Like loose tea in a pot when I can be arsed (usually only Sunday morn): cup & saucer instead of mug, tea cosy, strainer, all the trimmings.

I have coffee in the morning and at various points throughout the day (too much probably). That said I do like a nice cuppa and actually it's probably a better brew to have first thing. I may try changing my routine so as to start with a char.


Clipper Tea is my preferred brand.

3:00 p.m. rise


3:05 Chivas Regal with the morning papers, Dunhills


3:45 cocaine


3:50 another glass of Chivas, Dunhill


4:05 first cup of coffee, Dunhill


4:15 cocaine


4:16 orange juice, Dunhill


4:30 cocaine


4:54 cocaine


5:05 cocaine


5:11 coffee, Dunhills


5:30 more ice in the Chivas


5:45 cocaine, etc., etc.


6:00 grass to take the edge off the day


7:05 Woody Creek Tavern (or the East Dulwich Tavern) for lunch-Heineken, two margaritas, coleslaw, a taco salad, a double order of fried onion rings, carrot cake, ice cream, a bean fritter, Dunhills, another Heineken, cocaine, and for the ride home, a snow cone (a glass of shredded ice over which is poured three or four jig?gers of Chivas.)


9:00 starts snorting cocaine seriously


10:00 drops acid


11:00 Chartreuse, cocaine, grass


11:30 cocaine, etc, etc.


12:00 midnight, Hunter S. Thompson (or Steveo) is ready to write


12:05-6:00 a.m. Chartreuse, cocaine, grass, Chivas, coffee, Heineken, clove cigarettes, grapefruit, Dunhills, orange juice, gin, continuous pornographic movies.


6:00 the hot tub-champagne, Dove Bars, fettuccine Alfredo


8:00 Halcyon


8:20 sleep

I was ready to reach for the heroin after playing a mere snippet of Dulwich Fox's Gracie Fields cat scraping down a blackboard screechings. I'm sure there must have been many a British Tommy during the second world war who hurled himself into German gunfire after being subjected to her tuneless warblings. As Spike Milligan was to note in his memoir Mussolini: His Part in My Downfall, "she's as funny as a steam roller going over a baby."


Anyway, I'm more or less moribund before two large mugs of coffee with my cigarettes in the morning after rising from my pit. Tea is for the afternoon, preferably with a couple of Hobnobs.

    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA! 
    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
