RE: I bought some pressies for Myrtle yesterday

Happy to have the survey continue on here CG. I start the day with a tea, maybe have one coffee during the day, drink lots of water and a few more cups of tea.
While travelling I boiled the water and filled the thermos in the morning. It lasted me all day. Would carry a couple of bottles of water with me on the front seat for sipping at.
I never buy small bottles of water but had the 10 litre of drinking water with me so would fill my little bottles up from that in the morning also.

I drink lots of Coffee, so I boil the Kettle about twice a day, putting the remaining water in a Thermos Jug each time.  Saves on Gas and time on the Road.

Do the same at home too.  Saves heaps on Electricity.

Cheers,

Sheba.

I've got to get me a new Thermos before Myrtle and I head out again. The one I bought from an op shop never tightened up properly. No wonder they got rid of it.

Our local op shop is the busiest shop in town - havgotten some amazing bargains - lamps, crockery, wine glasses - platters, antique vases and bowls, clothes, shoes - some brand new with labels still on - bought a pair of bowls pants with an $89 label still attached, for $4!

There we go again - off on another tangent - what a hoot!!!
