I'm being followed by a moon shadow
moon shadow-moon shadow
leaping and hopping on a moon shadow
moon shadow-moon shadow

and if I ever lose my hands
lose my plough, lose my land
oh, if I ever lose my hands
oh, if...
I won’t have to work no more

and if I ever lose my eyes
If my colours all run dry
yes, if I ever lose my eyes
oh if …
I won't have to cry no more.
yes, I'm being followed by a moon shadow
moon shadow - moon shadow
leaping and hopping on a moon shadow
moon shadow - moon shadow

Happy Monday, everyone! A glorious morning outside and in! And a big mug of East India Company's "Keemun Downy Bud" tea to wake me up! Double strength, of course!

Not to worry, my friend. This is just my Halloween costume that I'm working on. I'm going to go 'trick or treating' wearing my "Ghost" costume. I've got the main suit finished but I'm still working on getting the 'mists' to swirl around my legs as I walk!

I wish I could like the greens... I certainly am in the right place to get a great variety of them. Often when we are touring on the weekends we pass tea 'factories' where we are almost knocked off the bike by the smells of the roasting/drying teas. All of these places have factory stores where the public can walk in to buy tea. Why couldn't I live in the Assam region! Or the Anhwei province of China for the keemun!

Quote:
today in the morning I started with 2 cups of Assam, a new one for me and the last of the single estate Assam I purchased in Fortnum and Mason in February (Assam Numalighur TGFOP1 Second Flush). As usual, superb Assam. The third one was the first cup of Keemun of the same brand. Then a very good Yunnan Black Golden Tips from Chah Online Tea.
These sound wonderful!

Sounds very convenient. Do you bring a spoon?

I hope the bath helps. Oatmeal is very refreshing for the skin. But do try a light antihistamine too.

But right now I think I will be better served with a second mug of Keemun Downy Bud! Then it's off to ride through the tea gardens in Uji, wishing they were in Assam...

Often, simple is preferable to complex. Welcome to the 'What's in your cup' thread,' and the MobileREad forums!

Mhm. Seeing as I have a Dr.Pepper addiction though, Dr. Pepper is always what's in my cup =D.

So therefore, Let me make my future thirty posts in this thread.

What's in your cup? (day one)
Dr. Pepper.

What's in your cup? (day two)
Dr. Pepper.

And so on! =P

They tried to launch Dr Pepper over here. It was a huge flop. It's unique taste didn't catch on. A bit like if Aussies tried to market Vegimite over there.

Thank you very much, it's quite an annoying habit, isn't it?

Dad/sister/family/friend/anybody really : What do you want to drink?
Me (Every time): Dr. Pepper.

No variety at all, really. I've long since forgotten what other drinks taste like.
My 23 Flavors are enough for me.

Remind me to cross out Australia on my list of places I want to go.


List of places I want to Go:

Definitely not Australia.


Yep... that's about it.

No Dr. Pepper sounds like a new horror movie.

Perhaps I should send that script to George A. Romero.

Script:
A world with no Dr. Pepper.
The end (literally and figuratively)
