Forgot about my tea and took a big gulp. It was cold?. X

*Lemon and Maw* I certainly wouldn’t have generated 2 pages of comments.

There’s a message there somewhere.......i

Same here Oopsa! My threads generate a couple of responses from kind souls who must feel sorry for me! But I don't mind!

What with that and the weetabix down your nightie, surprised you don't need counselling!

FlyingHandbag perhaps you're being overly polite, but you really don't have to copy, paste and reply to every post made on a thread you start.

HTH.

I can beat that on the riveting information scale. To day I cut out 2 fronts of a dress I was making. ???

My husband invariably lets his tea go cold.
As I like a hot drink to be hot I rarely make him one, as it annoys me too much that it'll (in my eyes) go to waste.

Flying Handbag you sound very much like a niece of mine ?

Oh cold tea - yuk. Iced tea, on the other hand, is lovely and refreshing. ?

That was a lovely compliment from your young relative!

We would all like to be thought of as fun !

I know. She is such a lovely girl, always smiling and full of compliments. X

Oh for heavens sake, FlyingHandbag

Just stop it with the copy and paste or whatever! No wonder a thread about cold tea has gone to three pages!

Wait for that ^^ post to be deleted!

I despair.

I painted our shed door today - enjoying watching it dry

I’m musing on getting a glass of lemonade.....but it means I would have to get up off the sofa.

Don’t spill any of it down your nighty lemongrove.

lemongrove you really should make the effort because you will become dehydrated.

lemongrove I was thinking of sorting out my jugs later - do you think I should have them in order of size or colour?

Lemongrove size and colour isn't everything, I was sorting out my Tupperware type containers recently, obviously the size issue matters for stacking purposes, but consideration must be given to frequency of use.

HTH.

Sorry, meant Lisegran but I'm sure Lemongrove will find the info useful.

*LisAgran apologies for the mis spelling!

Apology accepted phoenix

Ooh, Tupperware containers - now that’s a whole new thread

Indeed, Lisagran indeed......

I do that all the time and I’ve Ben known to bung it in the microwave occasionally if I’m feeling particularly lazy ?

Microwaving tea, you're not alone:

An American woman living in the UK has caused a stir after she posted a video of herself making a cup of tea in the microwave.

The woman, known only as Michelle, has a YouTube channel where she posts videos of herself trying out various English foods, but it's footage of her tea-making that's outraged numerous Britons.

In the video shared to TikTok, Michelle begins by pouring cold water into a cup. She then microwaves the water in the cup for a minute, before taking it out and pouring in a large quantity of milk.

Once the mug is full to the brim with a roughly two-thirds water, one-third milk concoction, Michelle's daughter adds a teabag to the mix. She then pours a large amount of sugar into the mug, and is told to "give it a little stir."

The final insult to the tea-drinking world comes at the end when Michelle holds up what can only be described generously as a milky, watery mess, smiles at the camera and then says, "That's how you make hot tea."

Michelle's video has generated nearly 9500 comments, with many deeply offended by her method.

Cries of "That's obscene" and "This is an abomination" have been swiftly sent her way.

Another said, "Congratulations, you've finally found a way to unite Britain for the first time in 4 years."

Don’t go there Spangler !
We had a whole thread about that a while back, Rosecarmel thought the universal comments of horror were anti-American and WWIII was narrowly averted!

Is that shed going to be on every thread?

Ooh, that rhymed!

Is it dry yet, is it dry yet?
Maw can I have some sweeties and a drink, Maw?
Maw, I'm hungry, can I have please

No, not cold tea

Oopsadaisy3

Because you have a reputation of opening threads about everyday things.

I dropped my tin of dressmaking pins this morning maybe I should have posted about that? ( Although I would have left out the bad language)

But I told myself that no one would be interested.

I am, honestly, Oopsadaisy

I keep a magnet in my sewing box, very useful
