How much for the teabags, and what manufacturer?Now sat down with aand MOTD
Good evening's stickering. Came home with a "finest" smoked gammon joint, two hake fillets, prawns, two cheese & onion pasties, cauliflower, green beans, chicory, mushrooms, potatoes, a mango, one bread, half a dozen hot dog rolls, a jar of truffle pesto and 1260 tea bags.

Tetley - catering sized bags, 3 at £3.30 each on clearance. So that's 0.78 pence per cuppa.

I should add, my usual "not bought on yellow sticker" teabag tea is Tesco's "finest" English breakfast. When I last bought it, it was £2.35 for 100 bags, but I've been making my way through a load of PG Tips and Barry's that I bought on YS because the boxes were squished.
Loose leaf tea of choice is Tesco Gold mixed with some "finest" Assam - mainly because that's the nicest loose leaf tea that they stock. I *could* go to Waitrose where they have a decent selection, but there I pay the same for a 125g packet as what I pay for a 250g packet of Tesco Gold.

80p cheaper than what I paid for the same size, at full price.

It's not to be sniffed at. They'd been on a display stand all summer at a fiver a pop, which, to be fair, is still plenty cheap enough.

Currently on my fourth of the year, and nearly empty. Might see me through till next month.
Then there's the PG Tips catering size bag, 1,100 for £7.99. Possibly see me to March.

Erk... And I thought I drank a lot of tea...
Although it's mostly leaf tea what I drink. The tea bags are for when I just want to make one mug as opposed to a whole pot.

Anyways, an early night for me. I'm thinking a nice girly pamper session before bed.

In Mike Carter's book 'One man and his bike' he mentions the amount of folk who ask how far he has come and after telling them they say 'For charity?' They are always surprised that someone would ride for fun. Well I got my first experience of that yesterday. While waiting for my food to be made at a street stall a man engaged in conversation and seemed genuinely non plussed anyone would use a cycle as transport.

Morning.
I was just reading about the tea and thought of all those little cards that we are missing out on !
We used to enjoy collecting them when we were young . It must have been quite an industry commissioning all of the artwork to produce the cards and album .
Sweet cigarettes used to have them too .

Sweet cigarettes
I remember them. I think they have to call them 'Candy Sticks' or summat, now..

We went out yesterday to do a bit of shopping in Lidl . My wife said that she shouldn't have brought me as I stopped by the tool section . I ended up buying a hammer drill and a nibbler plus battery . I needed a replacement drill as my last one started sparking and making strange noises .
Now ! If I go into my garage , apart from falling over bikes !
. I will find several old rechargeable old drills ! 
. They have been discarded for several reasons , the battery or charger failed , one battery blew up whilst I was drilling . That didn't half make a loud bang as it blew the side of the battery out ! . Over the years I have accumulated quite a few rechargeable drills , but in amongst them there is still an old Black &Decker electric drill that we were given as a wedding present backing 1976! It still works ! SWMBO just said that it is unsafe ! The switch is a bit dicky and doesn't always switch off!
