Tea? (Part 1)

[Arch]

A late pass through tonight; Which reminds me, I saw something very rare tonight, so rare I haven't seen one since the 70's or maybe early 80's

Spangles? Opal fruits?

Can you tell, I'm hungry....

 

[TheDoctor]

OMFG I'd forgotten about Spangles!!!
I reckon it's an Arctic Roll.
Or crinkle-cut chips, which I haven't seen since I was about 10.

 

[Landslide]

I've revised today's hypothesis: warm weather makes me buy new shoes! (That, and it's payday!)

 

[TheDoctor]

Very old-skool. I think I had a pair like that when I was ickle.

Which would be before I discovered crinkle-cut chips, Arctic Roll and spangles...

Oh dear, have you been watching the tennis?

Actually, those could be the shoe equivalent of Spangles...

 

[TheDoctor]

Sweet, wrapped in cellophane and bad for your teeth???

 

[Arch]

D'oh! I'm thinking of Pacers. They were green and white.

 

[tdr1nka]

Dunlop Green Flash?
Nostalgia ain't wot it used to be................

Landers, I never noticed before but your feet point in opposite directions!

 

[tdr1nka]

Pacers were like mint opal fruits, if I remember rightly?

I'm definitely coming down wiv a lurgey. Argghhhh.
I feel like someone is cleaning my sinuses with a meat hook.
*Blurgle, Sniff, Hack*

 

[Speicher]

I really hope it is not the same lurgy wot I have got. This is the seventh week now. If you can hear a noise like an old-fashioned coffee percolator, that is me, wheezing and puffing. Its been decades since my asthma has been this bad.

 

[tdr1nka]

I may be suffering a trio of delights, possible hay fever (brought on occasionally by tree pollen on days with really high pollen counts), tooth ache, I lost a crown from a molar about a month ago. and the dreaded lurgy.

Worst of all, I want to go to bed before it's Miss tdr1nka's bedtime.

 

[Speicher]

*Passes Tdr1nka a collection of tissue and hankies *

Install yourself in a chair or on a sofa. Can she bring you cold drinks?
It cannot be that long before she goes to bed.

 

[tdr1nka]

20:00 hours.
Just got to get her in the bath and then I'll probably curl up and go to bed when she does.

I'm keeping up the fluids but also having to get up frequently to answer nature's call.
It's times like this I miss drinking as I used fight the lurgy with applications, external and internal, of white rum.

 

[Speicher]

Can Tea be served to me remotely please?

I have over the last few hours come out in splodgy splodges of spots, some small, some large (three quarter of an inch across) I have done the obvious check of a glass over them, and they disappear.

 

[tdr1nka]

*pushes a mug of tea toward Speicherwith a broom handle*

Raised spots or just discolouration?
