I amused the canteen staff at breakfast on the Sunday morning - I took my big mug with me and while all and sundry were pouring coffee down their throats, I asked for some boiling water. Then in front of them I tossed in my Earl Grey teabag (yeah, I know, but needs must...) and asked one of the girls for some milk. A styrofoam cup the size of an oil drum, brimming with milk was duly handed back. "No no my dear, just need some for the tea", I said. She smiled, blinding me with some expensive dental scaffolding. And I even had sugar in the tea - barbarian! Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| www.macads.co.uk/snaps _____________________________
