    Teapots

    I had a Forlife one. But I lost the filter. Without the filter I was left with a tiny little spout which blocked all the time when I would pour.

    What is Your Favorite International Dish?

    Chinese chicken curry and rice. The kind found in British Chinese take-aways. So I suppose not technically a foreign dish.

    My First Pipe Dream

    I confess. I have occasionally dreamt that I was smoking a pipe. For a non smoker such as myself, dreaming about it has several advantages over the real thing: It is considerably cheaper. The health risk is nil. Plus my wife has no reason to object.

    Teapots

    Its worse than that. My wife has realised what I'm doing and I'm now banned from using that jug. But at least the concept pretty much works. Just need to find a new jug.

    Teapots

    For those who remember my complaint about the poor design of teapots. Here is something I conjured up myself from what I found in the cupboard. The big tea leaves will not get stuck in this spout. Neither will it be hard to clean. I'm a genius. Just hope my wife doesn't ask what I'm doing...

    No. But my house does have a field around it and there are sometimes sheep in it. (or cows).

    Show Us Your Falcons!

    People seem to have a love/hate thing with Falcons. They seem to perform fine from what I can gather, but their appearance divides people. Some stem bowl combinations are better than others. I think the bent Falcon Hunter with a little bowl is my favourite in terms of appearance. But I'm...

    Carrington Event

    Some of us here might have heard of the Carrington event of 1859 which played havoc with the electric telegraph. And the warning was that such an event again would cause major disaster on earth as we are now so dependent on electrical devices. The aurora last weekend was at level 5 (out of 5)...

    Aurora…

    I was sleeping. Tonight, I'll be more prepared.

    Coffee or Tea?

    Black tea with a small amount of milk. We have a decent coffee machine in church with decent coffee beans. So I do quite like a black coffee. But otherwise tea is my favourite.

    Sacre Bleu: French Baker Makes Croissants Sans Butter.

    I'm more of an Aldi man myself. I was horrified to see my normal shop was over £170. It used to be about £80 - £90. I'm not buying butterless croissants.

    Hi from Cornwall England

    Greetings from Wales I visited Portreath last year. I bought an ice cream. I can't remember much about Portreath except that both my son and I agreed that the lady serving the ice cream was gorgeous. I think the ice cream was ok as well.

    And Your Favourite Cheese Is?

    I am not a fan of cheese. However in the last few years I do eat a lot more of the stuff. Cheddar is good. Double Gloucester is good. Brie I don't mind either. But all in small amounts. But I don't like cheese with blue bits in. Nor bits of any kind.
