You bring that Cider along old mate. We'll enjoy it together if circumstance allows. I have to go sort my gear out soon for an early morning trip to the farm soon. So no more alcoholic beverage for me. Back to the tea after this. It was nice though, but I really gotta get my head back on straight...Not drunk mind, but I wouldn't go jumping on the bike for a ride right this moment all the same!

I think it might be Earl Grey time in about 20 minutes.

No no trust me Defence hasn't moved up in the world (its still a great job though) but security doesn't allow me to get on SRP off work computers. Phones though... well they have advanced so now I can get on SRP and Ebay whilst at work... BRILLIANT!

did someone say....... CIDER !?? MMmm I love me some cider I do. Hope you're going to have one for me or I will be a might upset now. So Check this out. I make a pot of tea. enough for a cup or two fer me plus two or three more.The extra two or three I let cool down in the pot and then pour that with the water into a glass wide mouth jar w/ lid. As for sweeting. When I make a pot ,I add sugar 1- 1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar to the pot and stir it good.This way I get the perfect sweet without over indulging cup by cup.When I make the rest into iced tea,I don't add anymore sugar.I 've found that after adding the cool water,that it's just the right amount of sweet without rotting my gums out.And the tea is nice and icey cold. Puurfecctooo ! ...Now..back to that Cider....We Hobbits love that stuff you know !

NB I would post you some but I'm not sure that it would get through customs ☹

Drink one for me....Trust me...I'll mentally appreciate it............Better make that two.

When I was working as infantry for the RAAF (ADG for those of you that know ) we were told we could take with us whatever we could carry... man some people carried some strange stuff! But we were well equipped!

Oh bother....My thread so I'm off topic fer a minute.Seems Between Mcduck and Maple leaf alumnus,I'm under the influence. I want Cider really bad and a set of smallpipes. Dang,dang,dang you guys.I feel my inner Scot reawakening and he's hungry for Cider,pipes and maybe a wee bit O marmite and toast. DANG !!!! Back to the regularly scheduled thing.....

Carl, the price depends lots of thing. For example, the older is usually more expensive.
I suggested for Slur one of these from China. $ 10.99, 145gr(!) and free shipping:

Bela should start getting a cut from the Dragon Tea House, I just sent away for one as well. Maybe on future orders I'll add, "Bela sent me".

Have a great day guys!! Don

Thanks guys, I'm glad you could help.
