FUN:- You know when your getting old.........when

Whenever I was shearing sheep or humping bales of hay in really hot sun the best possible drink to cool you down was a hot cup of tea! don't ask me why but it quenched your thirst. No matter how much coke or tizer (in those days) you drank they just left you wanting more.

There is proper science behind the tea thing to do with core body temperature.
There is also science in the fizzy drink thing - one of the chemicals used in most of them actually makes you feel thirsty. Sorry, off topic - put it down to my age!

You don't read the recipe properly and miss out an ingredient 'water', and then wonder why it won't 'pour' into cake tin!

We bought a TV to watch the correnation (52) and the entire village came to watch it, we had to borrow chairs and had them arranged like a picture house, those at the back didn't see much because it was a 9 inch screen.
