Stirred by Tea

I like to have tea first thing A very sobering thing Give the tea bag a flick For a flavour boost trick Though builders give it a wring

Haha I should have trialled the technique before posting! I flick them before adding water so I don't get dusty tea :) thank you for my placement :)

This is a clever limerick. I'm a wringer. Thanks for the light moment.

Haha I'm just a swisher. I used to like offensively weak tea but I'm medium and milky now :)

So enjoyed this limerick dear Dilly and I’m with you on the cup of tea ( I have soya milk in mine!) I guess a very English thing! My darling mum says the first cup of tea of the day is always the best! I think a nice cup of tea is always a comfort. Made me smile - thank you for that. May I wish you a truly magical Christmas Dilly. Hugs and blessings xx

I steer clear of all diet drinks as sweeteners are unknown things that give me headaches. I used to love Dr Pepper but they put sweeteners even in the sugar one now. Cherry Coke still has all the magic going on though :) I actually barely even squeeze my teabags - I prefer the flavour of it swished only x

Tea was invented for builders. I myself prefer coffee. In saying that, I like beer. Spirits are nice. Water into wine, love that guy Put the kettle on.
