I was at the hospital for a going over last week; a fun morning in the urology department that was. Prior to seeing the big cheese, I went through a fluids intake chart I’d had to complete with one of the nurses, who advised me to drink caffeine free tea.
So I promptly bought a packet and brewed up, and what a flavourless, gutless apology for a cup of proper tea it was. No satisfaction whatsoever to be had from it. You might as well drink hot water with milk in it.
In a way it reminded me of wanking. It’ll do if there’s absolutely nothing else on offer, but it’s a pale shadow of the real thing.
It’s piss, that’s all there is to it. The rest of the packet has now taken up residence in the compost bin, its spiritual home. Best place for it.
