Nausea, flashing lights, splitting headache, shivering and sweating at the same time, not nice. :nooo: Doc says you can wean back on to an intolerance by sipping a teaspoonful a time until you feel symptoms, then stop note how much you can tolerate and then i...

Re: WHAT DID WE HAVE FOR TEA?
I would have to pass on the Affagato. I have been promising to wean myself back on to coffee at some point. It always smells nice but taboo for the last 40 odd years. I will have to find a day when I don't have any commitments.

Brew and a chat to see what they can offer. Interested to see what they have done with my Uncle Bobs Joiners Shop at...

Re: WHAT DID WE HAVE FOR TEA?
Lunch today was light and very much Barlick generated. I toasted two slices of home made sour dough bread. I had crunchy peanut butter on one and slathered the other with some of our Jack's honey from his bees. The latter tasting like the heather the bees foraged from, lovely. :smile: Tea will be ho...

A later development still since we started using aircraft is the change from two fixed wheels, (which we have) to four castors, that's another game changer especially for the folk that seem to take the entire house with them. They must surely pay a hefty excess for the privilege when they check in. ...

Public notice has gone up on Frank Street regarding changes to our plans.
