Ivan, can I make a suggestion of either, Nelson's Tea Tree cream or oil(Thursday Plantation), for future ref.

It is a natural, very strong antiseptic and also an astringent which helps dry the wound and lets it heal much quicker. I use the oil on all my cuts, grazes, piercings and tattoos and swear by it!

Had some roibos 'tea' in Seth Effrica. Oh noes! Do not want!
Mind you, it's better than most of the muck masquerading as tea in France. Mint tea, with milk. Blech! And as for Earl Grey with Vanilla...:biggrin:

Indeed there is.:smile: I was once given some for free. I felt ripped off!:biggrin:

So not a good replacement eh?

In all honesty decaff tea will just leave you wanting.
Try Roi Bosh/red bush/11o'clock tea for a caffine free alternative to tea, it makes an excellent 'fake' Builders tea!:tongue:


It was the same with the coffee,i got a full day of the mother of all headaches as i withdrew from caffeine,and it took a while to get used to it too.I havnt heard of those teas,but then im not really an expert in tea,my knowledge goes as far as "what no tetley?PG will do then":smile:

<squwelches in, wetly>

Afternoon all! Anyone got a bucket I could wring my socks out into? I've been on the recyling crew all day, and it's been raining all day, and now I'm very, very wet. At lunchtime, I not only had trench foot, I had trench hands, from the the heavy duty rubber gloves we use. (and we need them - the risk of broken glass, plus the 'yeuch' of unwashed tins and jars, and something quite unmentionable in one box yesterday...

Any tea on the go? Please? I promise to go and drip on the door mat, if someone will just hand me a mugfull..

I have had two large mugs of filter co**ee this afternoon, and now have a headache :wacko:.

I also met a trichcy tricykle trick-cyclist this afternoon, and he also juggles, but perhaps not at the same time. :tongue:

BTW have we had a baby elephant in here recently? Why is there such a big puddle by the door - can anyone explain?

Grrrrrrrrr........Bloody battery has failed in our gas meter and Miss tdr1nka and I have a 4 hour wait for Transco to get our supply back on. Can't cook or run a bath. Miss tdr1nka also has nits and refusing a fish and chip supper.

At least the kettle is electric, grumble, grumble, grumble.

Hoping my wet weather gear is arriving tomorrow.
