This forum still amazes me ....
« on: 16 February 2007, 16:55:10 »

No not business with 'TheBoy' being 'TheBully'  ;) ;D

Got back home today for the the weekend, got in unpacked set up the laptop. I then went though my post.... had a Barclaycard Bill, general account statement, Computer Weekly mag and ohh a hand written envelope to me  :-/

Opened it up very curious not ordered anything or bought anything recently to this address.... opened it up and read a bit of paper that was inside which had NatWest at the top. Very odd i thought, I don't bank with them. Inside the envelope was some tea bags! Read the note, they were from Chopsdad for my Euro Trip!

On closer inspection the tea bags appear to be German called 'Euro-Blend'!  ;D

Such a kind thought, and again shows the generosity on this forum.

So I would like to publicly say big 'Thanks' to chopsdad for the gift and taking the time and effort to send it to me  :y

I will take them over on Sunday when we work on James 2.0 & Jamies rover they will be useful for some brew's to keep us going  :y

Mate, I think he might have sent them in order to better prepare you for the fact that there's little or no tea to be had in mainland europe....

and what there is, like that stuff, is bloody awful


pack an extra suitcase... of Pg tips pyramid bags.....      or you'll regret it.

I lived in Toulouse for a year, and the only thing I had to have sent out from home was tea bags.

LOL.... yeah one of my mates moved to Paris and the one thing he asked me to bring when I went for a visit was tea bags :D

Not as bad as the US though... closest I've found there is what the hotels offer as "English Breakfast", and it's unfortunately a pale shadow of the tea I normally have with breakfast.

I like the 'later', bit, now you'll end up torturing Tunnie into not knowing how much later or when the latter will happen ;D ;D
