Darjeeling for me. Yorkshire tea is much too strong, even with the addition of a lot of oat milk. Earl Grey disagrees with me - must be the bergamot. I don't ordinarily add either milk substitute or sugar to tea, and I don't dunk anything in it.

With all of the veterans there are suffering from PTSD and having melt-downs at anything that sounds like firearms, I'd plump for silent fireworks. Noisy ones aren't a problem for me since I was dosed with an intravenous ototoxic antibiotic for a couple of months. All I have to do is turn my...

Speaking of not wearing ties, for my first four years with Corning Glass Works, I was the computer tech in one of the local factories. I lost count of the number of male colleagues that I had to warn against letting their ties dangle over the moving machinery!

With some brands, I use vice-grip pliers to unscrew the caps.

Thanks. That's really how I currently look. My hair stylist took the photo on my phone ten days ago.

Been happening here for years. It's best to check the weight of the container or the price per ounce to get a realistic impression of value.

I read somewhere, quite a while ago, that he was attacked on the street in Balby while he was there for filming. He commented that the assailant was among the "permanently confused", or words to that effect.

One of my uncles was in the US Navy during World War I, but I have no further information about his service, except that he survived and learned the machinists trade while he was in the Navy.

The only source for malt vinegar in the States, that I've found so far, is in the British section of the supermarket.

Salt and malt vinegar. Mushy peas hate me with a passion, causing symptoms as though I'd had a dose of arsenic. Like many Americans, I find curry sauce much too hot. Can't imagine gravy on either the fish or the chips.

Six, done up in shrink-wrap and labeled "Not for individual sale."

In the US, roast turkey with all the trimmings is traditional for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. The holidays are only about a month apart, and I'm not all that fond of turkey. I'll take just a politely small slice of the thigh meat and lots of stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy. My usual...

When I'm staying at an HF Holidays Country House Hotel I'll have a Fever Tree tonic water with ice and lemon, mostly to appear as though I have a drink in my hand while socializing with other guests. I gave up alcohol decades ago because I wanted to buy a good pair of running shoes and there...

Haven't seen a reel-to-reel tape deck since about 1970!

Well, I'll go to the bottom of our stairs! It never occurred to me that it was an actual removals company and not a prop.

I've blocked tracking, but since my legs are so weak that I can't drive I have to hire transport. The company charges my credit card and sends a receipt, so that provides me with the same kind of record.

I'm surprised that the passengers don't look equally fed up!

Holme Styes reservoir? That's the nearest to Hade Edge, where Barry & Glenda lived.

Mr. Crossland's overall fit him better than Crusher's did!

Sounds wonderful!
