Rooibos... *bleurgh*

In that case, I'll stick to peppermint if there's no milk to be had.

Our first tiff ..... I used to get Rooibos orange from lidle, it was delicious.
Peper mint tea? Not tried that

I've just never liked rooibos. Mind, some other herbal infusions are pretty rank...

English Breakfast is (mostly) the tea-of-choice here chez Casa Reynard.

Might have the odd bit of Earl Grey or Assam now and again, plus I usually start the day with a nice big mug of peppermint tea. I also like chamomile occasionally, and peppermint & nettle. For the latter, I pick nettles from the garden - a fitting form of revenge if ever there was one LOL

Peppermint tea is a great cure for stomach ache, chamomile for anxiety/stress. Always keep some in stock. Green tea is ‘where it’s at’ though (apologies for the colloquialism, I blame my kids). I keep meaning to try white tea. Apparently, it’s healthier and better tasting than green tea. Tisane is also on my list to try. Black tea is simply not nice.

Chamomile also helps reduce fever, which is great when you've got the lurgies. Add a thick slice of lemon and a dollop of honey to that, (plus 2 paracetamol) and you've got a top-drawer cold relief that's MUCH nicer than lemsip...

Nettle tea is a good pick-me-up.

I'm eating a pear but it's rather hard. CRUNCH!

I get this a lot when I tell people I drink Green Tea these days, I'm sure they think it's a herbal infusion whereas it is just Tea Leaves processed differently so that it doesn't need the addition of Milk and Sugar to make it palatable in the way that Tea processed the Indian way does.

Time for some early am miles

 

[Levo-Lon]

What a difference a day makes, clear blue sky and no wind.. I wish mrs Lon was an early riser, we could be off out biking.
Hope we do today as ive not been on my bike for nearly 2 weeks .

Morning. It is a lovely sunny start to the day here with the sun bathing everything witha yellow golden light . The sky is a lovely light blue with a few small clouds of mauve and orange .

Have I missed the sun ?


Not half !

 

[Illaveago]

Mmm, in my defence, my interest was in the F3 cars back then - if it's late 80s...

IIRC there wasn't a great deal of difference between the F3 and F3000 tubs at the time apart from the floor. One had one whereas the other didn't, a bit like the Flintstones.
I took the dimensions for the modelfrom one we were working on .
