Morning all from Estuary-Land. The bin wagons dawn chorus has been and gone, together with the bin bags. I am a tea drinker and though I am not a great coffee lover I will drink it when in countries where it is the normal beverage as tea in many of those places is dire. In fact the only place I have visited where both beverages can be found to a reasonable standard is Malta which has both British and Italian influences. The best coffee I have tasted was in Ypres, in a small cafe named Sante. I use leaf tea in a filter teapot, I don't use teabags because the bags are mostly plastic. I'll have to check out (pun unintended) the tartans as there are several Scottish surnames in my family history, one of whom moved to the west country and changed their surname in the 1500's. This was at the time of Mary, Queen of Scots and there is ample evidence of involvement with the 'establishment' so it might well be political. Thats it for now, be back later.
