ctfc- :o

Any form of chocolate hits the spot, melted, cold, dug out a dustbin...if I have any in the house I have to keep it in the freezer to stop me eating it- doesn't work though so just don't have it in the house. I now have emergency nutella which I can have on ryvita if I get really desperate! My life is a sorry state of affairs really!

I have an addiction to money and women. I just can't get enough of either and the more I get the more I want. Those are my only two interests in this world.

Wine, especially fizz. Can't live without it. Can't do more than a few days.

A big mug of earl grey tea with skimmed milk.

Garnier summerbody lotion.

I drink around 8-10 cups of tea a day... I've managed to get the wife and maid drinking the same amount too.

To the point, when we drive from Duabi back to Abu Dhabi we always stop off at Gantoot to get a tea for the rest of the journey.

Apparently tea's healthier for you than water. I'm at about 10 cups a day, too--quite like Liptons out here, but back home its always Yorkshire Tea. Also like Earl Grey with skimmed milk. Never have tea out, always tastes crap--always have coffee; best cup ever was at a hotel in Guangjou, percolated in what looked like a chemistry set.

Apparently, it is as new research shows.

Ewe Liptons how very dare you! Tea always tastes crap when you are out cos they use that revolting milk.

So 10 cups a day seems normal then

We have liptons here - Quite like it. I double bag when I'm at work though.

At home, we used to alternate between PG and Tetley.
