I'm with you on the coffee!

And the odd cup off rooibos in recent years.

I may as well not drink incohol, it's so infrequent when I do!


What's this Rooibos you mention.

I was talking about Tesco Value Coffee and Tea. That's where it's at. They are the hidden gems of Tea & Coffee. ;) :p

Altered for accuracy for you.

Too easy to spill it on take off CC... You know that!

Rooibos - "red bush" - caffeine free tea. In recent years, my evening beverage!

Can't stand the Tesco blue stripey coffee... Like grit-blasting your teeth!

That's because us Army lads actually work. I know the RAF work in the clouds. It doesn't mean you have to live in them! ;)

I was taking the proverbial with the value brew kit comment. Just goes to show what I've know for the past 20yrs.

The RAF don't get sarcasm.... :rolleyes: :p

The Mrs will only drink Rooibos at the moment. Apparently caffeine is bad for a baby. (No sh!t Sherlock!)

Yes, unfortunately during my time, I worked underground monitoring the cold war/ logging fighter interception excercises to ensure the Ruskies didn't try and slip one up us.

I've always wanted to learn Russian. I asked to do a Russian Language course in work and was told to poke it and sent to do Pashtun & Dari instead. My argument that the Russians spent 9yrs in Afghan and therefore some may speak the lingo didn't wash. No idea why

I thought it was a genius idea too! :D

I dated a girl who swore by 'tea pigs'

Just ****** tea bags but you have to get them mail order. Honestly couldn't tell the difference! I drink tea by the gallon (and beer) but avoid coffee- gives me headaches

I have never been a beer drinker, just instant coffee as real coffee gives me terrible cramp. Back just a month before Christmas I tried drowning my sorrows and started at 5pm and just made it to bed every night. On the 15th of Jan I thought this is stupid and have not touched a drop since, and never again.

I've never been a huge drinker either tbh. Was usually driving, so just got used to driving my mates around, they buy me soft drinks all night... And I got to remember the night! (Not always a good thing! :))

Or had rugby to think about.

Have the occasional session when we catch up.

But I'm so dependant on driving for both jobs that it's just not worth it for me. (Was also told once that flying with a hangover, besides being illegal, is a very very uncomfortable experience, on sooo many levels!)
