Very funny Tilly. Also not recommended when in a B&B: 1. sink too small to fill ketttle,so 2. Fill glass with water, then transfer to kettle 3. Pour water all over table instead of into kettle 4. Proceed as 6 above Although my elderly uncle thought he'd filled the kettle and was waiting for it to boil. Shouldn't laugh really. It might be my turn soon!

The sun was in my eyes!
Not a good start to the day Tilly .....go back to bed and try again later, or better still see if Mr T will make one for you xx
Why drink tea?
Look at the dilemma it creates.
Hmmm a nice coffee,,,anyday;-)
Tilly...it is what is described as a senior moment !

My old Mum had a habit of putting the tea cosy over the milk jug and putting the tea pot back in the fridge !

I'm ok now thanks, seeks. Fortunately, I had another packet of teabags. Happybirthday, by the way .
ozzy.......... Then I would have ruined a whole jar of coffee.

Sandy, Pasta,......just shows you have to be on the boil.....so to speak.

Coffee isn't without it's hazards either 1ozzy.

I've lost count of the number of times ive put my cup in the fridge instead of getting the milk out of it when making my brews.

Mikey, I'm not old enough for senior moments, or am I?
I once picked up a jar of gravy granules instead of coffee, didn't notice until I tried to drink it.
Tilley, that made me laugh!
Well Tilly if you ruined a whole jar of coffee it would have been a brew that would have destroyed both cups and spoons and kept me awake for days and days.

For goodness sake Boo,,,the fridge is the "big white thing that is cold inside"
Geez,,,what is wrong with you lot ;-)
well to be pedant, my fridge is pink but I do see your point ;-)

Ya know how it is, when you get up, you're totally zonked, not thinking straight or even fully awake yet till you've had that coffee...

When all of a sudden, you can't find your cup again, you sigh, start again, go in the fridge for the milk and go "ahhhh ,there it went..."

It happens!
Ok I think I've figured it out now.
It's just as cold inside your fridges as it is outside of them.
No wonder you lot get things confused ;-)
Tilly...I am much too much of a gentleman to ask !
Today it is aye, frickin snowin' again 'ere! :-(
Enjoy the white stuff, and I don't mean milk for your tea and coffee.
Cya all later.
if you have a senior moment, it means you're a senior, so it looks like you've qualified. An invitation to your seniorhood welcome party is in the post, complete with information pack and bumper stickers, and the official T-shirt
