I am a old timer I travel the roadI sit in my waggon and lumber me load The hotel's me jungle the cab's me abode I’m well known to Blondie and Mary. my liquor is diesel oil laced with strong tea The old Highway Code was me first ABC, I cut me eyeteeth on an old AC I’m champion at keeping them rolling. I sit in my cabin and boiled in the sun Been snowed up on Scarps on the Manchester run I crept through the fog with me 22 ton of fish that were stinking like blazes. From London to Glasgow to Newcastle quay From Liverpool, Preston to Bristol City the plons on the road give the thumb sign to me I’m champion at keeping them rolling. You may sing your soldiers and sailors so bold but there’s many and many a hero untold Who sits at the wheel in the heat and the cold And day after day without sleeping. So watch out for the cops and slow down at the bends And watch all you gauges and check your big ends And zing with your lights as you pass an old friend You’ll be champion at keeping them rolling. ![]() ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwrkaJvfe0I ) Good morning, all! Monday morning and I'm ready to hit the roads. Breakfast is high carbos and fats to keep me warm, and a big mug of Ahmad English Breakfast tea to get my motor turning. Long ride planned for today, and it's bloody cold outside! I'm taking a thermos of hot tea with me for road stops. With air temperatures around zero, the 'wind chill factor' at 60kph will be close to -30. Riding like this takes some extra pocket hand warmers taped over my kidneys and the backs of my hands. And a LOT of hot tea! Quote:

Happy birthdays, happy vacations, happy "new tea" days.
![]() I'm in a routine of Peets coffee during the day and Lung Ching Dragonwell tea in the evening/night. I feel silly posting the same beverages day after day. Until I buy a new variety of tea or coffee -- or until I feel less silly about repeating myself -- y'all know what I'm drinking.

From Nashville to central Florida. It ended up being closer to 11 hrs, even with several stops. ![]() In my cup - decaf coffee that my Mommy made for me.

A mug of black coffee following lunch. We tend to have coffee after breakfast and lunch, and either a green tea or black tea after dinner. Favourites are Twinings green tea and their Russian Caravan tea.

Do you wait until it melts and then drink it?

It's empty. It was a glass of milk, though.

Black coffee. It's cold outside here, too. I'm going for a walk if I can make myself get up from this warm chair and step out the door. Not really wanting to, though.
