In a world that is so technologically complex, where it's possible to hear the flow of blood in your baby's unborn heart, where it's possible to communicate across the globe with moving pictures at no cost, where it's possible for an ordinary person with a need for thrills to buy a flying suit and glide down a death defying valley of jagged rocks...with enough control to be able to almost touch the rocks with their hands as they blat past.....why is it so hard to get a decent cup of tea?
Not that I'm really complaining....
But I'm in a hospital bed (again) and I'm looking at my breakfast, and every morning they bring me a cup with a lid on it that's full of hot water, and next to it is a tea bag. Everyone I know knows that you have to put the two together when the water is boiling and if you don't there's really no point.....
I don't get it. Nobody's thought of a clever way around it....
I read this out loud to the family, and we mum howled with laughter! Such a funny writer Dad. Love ya xxx
