    I fucked up bad.

    I've got another six days overseas and have somehow only got six tea-bags remaining, so one cup a day.

    That's no good - I need at least two or three a day.

    How could I mess up such basic math?!

    • Don't be greedy, it's better to skip a day than drinking recycled tea :) it feels great to know that I'm the only one who f this up sometimes :)

    • @mono - can't get anything like half-decent tea where I am and I've not been a coffee head for decades.Nairn
    • @sted - y'know what, I might actually keep my used tea bags and try recyling them - it was a running joke that cheap people did this in old days :)Nairn
    • @mono depending on which part of the world you are in, there are significant differences between even the most basic teas.

    • Lipton Black Tea - Green Label is a rich aromatic black tea in Europe. It's called "Darjeeling" in the US and Australia and it has a much thinner in taste.
