Foxie demanded her morning cup of liquorice tea, yes ma'am, and I look in the Tupperware box into which the teabags are stored to keep 'em fresh and, quelle horror! only three left. With fingers all a-tremble I check the cupboard where I keep the tea and there's no boxes left. I always order a pack of six boxes at a time and hadn't noticed I'd used the last one. If Mincey thinks he's having a hard time with his woman just imagine Foxie without her tea. <gulp> I fire up the 'pooter and log onto Amazon and pull up my last order of tea and I'm saved! With Prime I get a pack of 6 boxes delivered tomorrow. <saved by Mr Bezos>

Thus avoiding the great South Wales liquorice tea scandal of 2020..
Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.

Dodged a bullet there Phlopps!
I know a man who taught his dog to play the trumpet on the London Underground.
He went from Barking to Tooting in an hour.
