When I was a student, I lived with a girl who left her teabag on the draining board. This drove me so mad, one night I put her tea bag in her bed, under the duvet!
She never left it on the draining board again!! more…

Yep - totally agree. I used to want to kill a flatmate who made tea as an all in one experience, bag milk and sugar all at once. Vile vile vile.

I do not mind, pots or direct to mug. But if the milk has gone in the wrong order it is just WRONG. And it tastes so....well...wrong too. more…

I completely agree.

I have a friend who makes tea in mugs and insists on putting the milk in first. This perplexes me greatly.

I have a M.I.L who insists that tea is made in pots. This pisses me off greatly.

Now having agreed with you and stated that what my friend does perplexes me greatly an more…

I am extremely jealous. Whilst learning to drive, my first car was a a lovely little fiesta, not really big enough for our growing family as my son had to sit with his knees by his chin when the car seat was in the back, but it cost £250 and the insurance was cheap.

I passed my driving test just after christmas only to discover that my more…

aww this is so sweet! Contrast my neighbours and their 4 vehicles which they clog the road up with - I could cheerfully torch all of them - especially the 28 yr old capri that Daddy brought home as a 'project' and dumped opposite my house. What a lovely view it is. Yes...I am trying to get it towed away but currently it is taxed. The second that it more…

Nope, then pen is now safely in my bag. Another logo'd pen for the collection. My last chance to nab one of theirs too.

As for your two sneaking in, we don't have that issue yet. But I fear it won't be long and then we will have to get a lock as it could all get a bit..err..well..y'know. ;) :oops:

Thanks M, That's exactly what the GLW's mum will say too. But I just can't shake the guilt.

Friends of ours go off for two weeks to the other side of the world without their kids and do not have a care in the world. Their kids seem to stil love them...

Odd you should say that as a box actually works out cheaper if you fill it. I think it has 10 seats and they want £400 for it.

But the problem is, being on the sides means you miss the edge of the stage that you are at.

I had a box once at the royal albert hall and as great as it was, i did feel like I was not "involved" more…

having spent 4 nights as the back end of a panto cow (don't ask) bent double and so hot I lost a stone -I would agree with you and say that it was still more comfortable than my last trip to the theatre so you're spot on about the investment needed. The only way is to get a private viewing - but that might set you back more than 60 quid I guess... more…

We work it so that one year, we're at my parents' for xmas day and the next year we're at the other half's parents'. We swap for boxing day. My brother and sisters all do the same with their in-laws, so one year my mom has a really busy Christmas day and a quiet boxing day, and the next year she has a quiet Christmas day and busy boxing day.

Science and the Art of Biscuit Dunking!

Biscuits (or what the Americans call "cookies") have been around for about 2,300 years, but only very recently have we started applying science to biscuits . I'm not talking about how to best make biscuits, but the serious business of how to dunk biscuits.

Thanks to physics, we have more…
