My Little Jaunt in Whitby
I went to Whitby nearly 30 years ago. Nice place. Was considering a holiday in that area this year. I fancy seeing the train museum again. But its a long way for me, so I'll probably go somewhere else. (long way by UK standards) -

Tea Making Method Requires a Pinch of Salt.
While we can frown upon people using microwaves for making tea, or adding salt, or something other than the traditional way. It has to be said that I have had plenty of awful cups of tea made for me in this country. Cheap teabags, skimmed milk, and my real bugbear, too much milk. I prefer...- Flatfish

Tea Making Method Requires a Pinch of Salt.
Am I right in thinking in the US, microwaves are used over kettles because your electricity is less powerful than ours?- Flatfish

Earthquake
I am very fortunate here in Wales. I have never felt an earthquake. It rains but not like a monsoon. It gets hot, but not for very long. It gets windy but not hurricane force. If we get snow its barely more than a few inches as a rule and much of it melts by the afternoon. It gets cold and...- Flatfish

Any Tea Drinkers?
A little milk. I'll add my own because everybody else doesn't seem to understand what a little bit means.- Flatfish

Different Occasions - Which Pipe?
What styles tend to suit different situations? For instance I'm guessing you are not likely to take a churchwarden lunting. A churchwarden is more of a sit down and read a book sort of pipe. Mowing the lawn or fishing seems to be cob territory. What other situations are there where a bent...- Flatfish

New Smoker
Welcome from Wales. I have been through Germany on a bus on my way to Prague. I can remember signs coming off the Autobahn saying Ausfahrt. I had never heard of the place. But after seeing Ausfahrt everywhere I came to the conclusion the place must be huge, how come I'd never heard of it...- Flatfish

Swimming
Funny story with this boat. I thought it was a club boat, and in the photo I am taking the old tub to third place in the regatta. Got mentioned in Yachts and Yachting Magazine. Then the following year I went to borrow it again and the club told me I couldn't use that boat. It wasn't theirs...- Flatfish

Swimming
I had lessons at the local pool. Was never (and still not) a fan of being underwater. Surely the point of swimming is to keep your head up. I briefly (once) went to a canoe club. But when you capsize you are upside down. I didn't like that one bit. So I took up dinghy sailing. When you...- Flatfish
