Alt, yes very much.I'm a big tea fan, like a lot of the herbal shit. White tea's nice too.
My favorite at the moment is Spearmint and Peppermint.

Green tea tastes like dishwater, and looks like it too.Books: quite honestly I've not been reading much lately.
Since I got a decent phone I've been watching films on it when in transit. There are lots of books I would like but being lolskint means I can't have them.

Just finished Shatter The Bones, which I think is number 7.Got the next one on my Kindle ready for my holidays, then that's me up to date. I'll also catch up on his other short stories, which I've yet to try.
