The side door will be open, might make a tea urn to sit on the edge.

As long as no-one falls in the (hot) water, all should be well!


"Heeee's fallen in the waterrrr!" I think that was Bluebottle.  ;D

Yup! Or Little Jim, one or t'other.

It usually was!  The attached  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Goon_Show_running_jokes    might provide a few minutes of entertainment/reminiscence.

Lashed up a tea urn with spigot. No, it's not overscale, this is the Army we're talking about, LOTS of tea required! And a basic welcoming sign. You'll also notice that I installed a simple floor.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Don't know why, but tea brewed at home is never quite the same.

I tend to drink coffee when out as very few places brew tea the way I do at home. At home it's tea all the way though, in a mug not cup  :thumbsup:

Also known as "Emergency Coffee/Tea" - as in 1-1-1
1 teaspoon Coffee, 1 Teaspoon Sugar and 1 dollop of milk.

Course, that only really applies here; imagine 9-1-1 coffee...  or even worse, 9-9-9... :o  X-P

"Tea or Coffee?"
"No, neither thanks."

Coffee we make at home is on the strong side of lethal. Weak coffee is one of the worst tastes imaginable.

Probably because you don't keep yours simmering for hours on end... ;D

I'm assuming that the "coffee" referenced in the formula is that vile product known as "instant coffee". Which tastes nothing like coffee.

You should experience the stuff we used to get in single-serve pouches in the ration packs. Truly vile stuff, but some would actually trade for it. One chilly morning at CFB Borden we were still trying to get the cobwebs out of our eyes when a fellow was gulping down his usual double serving in his cup, and someone else said "I don't know how you can stomach that stuff." He replied "It kind of grows on you." It was one of the few times in my life that I was able to come up with a quick riposte; "Yes," I said, "and kills whatever else grows on you." Had it been a shooting war the guffaws would have alerted the enemy five miles away.  ;D

Fortunately, the coffee after the main Sunday service at Hereford is decent, but I have been to churches where the elderly maiden ladies who make the coffee have a competition to see who can get the most cups out of a single 100g jar of cheap coffee powder .  RON the recently retired Church Times cartoonist featured them regularly.
