I'm on the wagon (ish) so just having a yet another bloody lovely cup of tea smile

Used to be a lovely chilled dry white wine but one has to make sacrifices in search of the body beautiful!

Like the sound of alcohol free wine harrigran

gilly, enjoy

Just picking up on Harri’s alcohol free wine . Sainsbury’s do an excellent alcohol free sparking wine . I rarely get to a Sainsburys as there aren’t any near me so when I do go I stock up . smile

Much needed glass of wine!
We had the plumber in changing the shower. Four hours - long story!
Then tried - I stress tried to transfer an ISA.
Now lying on bed with a glass of red to destress while husband makes dinner.

I’m hoping to have at least 3 glasses of wine with my supper tonight. It’s a rare treat to be eating out at all,near mind on a Thursday. I intend to make the most of it. smile

Sparkling Sauvignon blanc, alcohol free and it is very refreshing. Sitting in the garden with my book.

Water with ice in it.

Three cups of coffee so far. Two at home and another at the hairdresser. And now I've got to drive for two hours. Help! grin

MawB what is fennel tea? wink.

henetha Thu 08-Aug-19 11:47:53

My second cup of tea of the morning.

Rowantree Thu 08-Aug-19 10:23:02

Nankate Mmmmm, sounds lovely - as does Pittcity s elderflower tonic.

I'd love a Pimms but I don't have any and I'm trying to cut down on alcohol intake. Coffee for me in a few minutes - from a cafetiere, not those plastic pod things.

Earl Grey

MawB Thu 08-Aug-19 10:09:11

Fennel tea

MissAdventure Thu 08-Aug-19 09:34:42

Yorkshire tea.
First of many. smile

Glammy57 Thu 08-Aug-19 09:19:00

Coffee with skimmed milk.

Fennel Thu 08-Aug-19 09:09:41

Black coffee with sugar. My favourite for many years.
There have been so many contradictory reports about coffee. Now they say it delays dementia, helps to prevent diabetes and doesn't stop you sleeping.

Rosiebee Thu 08-Aug-19 08:58:00

Cold coffee. I got up about 7.30 to make drinks for myself and DH. Took them back to bed and have been scrolling through internet. Reading this post reminded me I had a mug of coffee at side of bed. DH is the same. His turn tomorrow to make drinks which will also be drunk cold. (Ex teachers, very used to cold coffee)

MissAdventure Thu 08-Aug-19 01:04:44

Iced water.
Its hot in my bedroom!

H1954 Thu 08-Aug-19 01:03:23

A lovely cup of Twinings tea from my favourite mug after a very trying and windy 16hr day!

morethan2 Wed 07-Aug-19 22:57:09

Same as last time I replied, pink gin and tonic. If I’m still answering the same by next Monday your all to give me a good talking too.

Ah, the old songs are the best ones!

MissAdventure Wed 07-Aug-19 22:27:32

Nobody knows the troubles we have, eh?

lemongrove Wed 07-Aug-19 22:26:23

Oh dear MissA ...that can be nasty, do hope it clears up soon
( I am a fellow sufferer.)

MissAdventure Wed 07-Aug-19 22:23:00

A mug of tea.
Ah, lovely!
It took me ages to get up and make it as I have a bad case of lazyitis, so I was really thirsty.

Minniemoo Wed 07-Aug-19 22:11:39

Cava. At last something decent
