I know, it's insightful indeed


If I told you I was a quinoa eating veggie, how would that sit with your view right now?

More patronising terms. 'Quiorna' vegetable milk. Get into the real world where the rest of us eat normal food, for the sake of sanity and common sense, please? I'm guessing you can only buy it in small hippy Indy establishments where posh people with beards charge a fortune and possibly even milk the plant in front of you so you can be sure it's 'fresh'.


Louisa.

Highland spring mineral water in your kettle is sheer joy. Even better though is Harrogate (in the glass bottle) as it's got that 'drier' mineral note.


That used with a silver tip infusion is pretty perfect. But it also makes a good 'builders' (Clippers) if you're slumming it


Oh and semi skimmed goats milk (Delamere is my favourite), or if i'm down in Mersham I can buy it fresh

I like the range of Tiger Spring Teas from the guy on North Cross.


English Breakfast, Ceylon Orange Pekoe, Gunpowder (Green Tea) no name just a few..


All loose leaf teas..


He's not there very often.. A very pleasant fellow..


Would recommend you try when he's there..

Train to Scotland if I'm having tea. The water in the West Coast Highlands makes for the best cup.


Partial to a cup of Assam, has to be strong, no sugar and dash of milk. If down south, Yorkshire Gold is good, Yorkshire Red however is way too sweet.


Mornings - I prefer coffee. In fact, lately I have been drinking coffee during the day too, never in the evening unless I am out out.

Coffee, black at home from my Nespresso machine. I know it's not really what true coffee lovers would have, but I am too lazy to clean a cafetiere every day so before I got the machine I mainly drank instant.


I have the occasional soya cappuccinos in cafes - soya is not because I am a Guardianista, but because I am lactose intolerant.


I like most herbal and fruit teas, the tiger spring Moroccan Mint is particularly lovely.


Never got the taste for proper tea, don't like the smell either.

    • Another glowing recommendation for Keith. We’re incredibly grateful to EDF for helping us find Keith - I had lots of other quotes from companies who were upselling the work we needed, whereas Keith was very friendly, honest, knowledgeable and competitively priced.  He was incredibly communicative through the whole job and carefully thought through his approach. He did lime mortar repointing along with some brick and masonry repairs, and did everything to a very high standard. We could absolutely trust his advice. He’s lovely to chat to and very respectful of neighbours, clearly communicating when there would be noise or mess. He organised the scaffolding company who were also excellent (Reliable Scaffolding). They worked around limited parking and were prompt to take down the scaffolding once the work was finished. The scaffolding was also much cheaper than other quotes.  Couldn’t recommend Keith enough and we already have him booked in to do another job for us. 
    • If you mean the joinery firm that made windows and doors, it closed down several years ago and a private house was built on the site.
    • I’ve been looking at their website from time to time over the last few years and I was sure that at least one loaf - the signature sourdough - is supplied by the BreadBread bakery who are at a lot of markets at weekends and who used to have a small cafe bakery shop in Brixton Market. I used to go there specifically to get their bread.   They are also affiliated with Franco Manca.  That was the first FM, co-founded by Bridget Hugo, who died last year. BreadBread also supplied the bread for the now closed Crooked Well pub restaurant (but now open under a different name - The Kerfield Arms)  in Grove Lane SE5.  Not sure where the pastries come from but it doesn’t seem possible to choose which ones to have delivered.  I do think they chop and change the suppliers from time to time.  I like the look of the (expensive) crullers they sometimes have plus granola, the savoury pastries and expensive bagels.  They frequently have special offers for a first delivery.  40% is the highest discount I’ve seen so far. I too would be worried about a fox being an opportunist.
    • Yes, they sound excellent.
