My office smells like Tunes menthol sweet things
and I can't figure out why. Who would wear perfume that smells like Tunes?

Is someone drinking weird tea?
A colleague of mine drinks something that smells like those cough candy sweets.

Fucking deviants
I have a friend who drinks liquorice tea. He reckons it's good for his throat. I reckon it's good for freaking out everyone around him.

I might have to try liquorice tea
You know, just experiment the once, what harm can it do?

Someone asked me if I'd like some herbal tea once.
I was pleasantly surprised when I found it was actually quite nice, like.

There's a lass
in my office who drinks dandelion tea. Swears it's good for cleansing and other hippy bollocks and then moans loud and long about how it makes her piss like she's got a hose in her nethers. Well stop drinking the fucking disgusting stuff then!
(berk, Fri 7 May 2010, 10:50, Reply)

If she's pissing more than she's drinking
I'd worry
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Fri 7 May 2010, 10:51, Reply)

She does look
like she's been slowly oven dried over a period of say, three weeks, but she always has a cup of herbal something or other on the go, so I doubt there's much to worry about. Plus dandelion leaves are quite a strong diuretic. It's the fact that she constantly spouts hippy nonsense and then tells all and sundry at volume about her wee that annoys me.

lets not start a tea thread or we'll be here all day

However I do hate it when people drink cappacinos in the afternoon or heaven forbid after dinner.

Cappacino is a breakfast drink and only a breakfast drink.

ooh get you with your coffee etiquette
I like lattes. When can I drink them?
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Fri 7 May 2010, 10:55, Reply)

Between 14:45 and 16:15
Monday, Wednesday and Thursday.

Never. latte is coffee for people who don't like coffee
Don'r get me started on skinny Lattes.

Yeah we all are love, mainly because what you eat makes you visible from space.

because everything else in the (free, granted) vending machine tastes like hot water with grit in it.

20p a cup here, unless you're a visitor, then you get coffee from the really nice machine. It's a true class divide I tell thee.

Herbal/fruit tea always smells really nice

I think peppermint tea tastes like hot chewing gum

It could create a peculiar smell
Which might lead people in your office to speculate about what you're drinking and discuss it anonymously on internet forums.

COULD YOU LIVE WITH THAT ON YOUR CONSCIENCE?

You're right
I don't think I can do it. I must think of the consequences.

My car was wet yesterday
on the inside. The driver side footwell was soaking, but the rest of the car was bone dry. It had rained through the night, but I can't see how any rain got in or how only the footwell area was wet.

A most perplexing mystery.

This happned to a friend of mine in the passenger footwell
It was somehow coming through the bulkhead from the engine and was all oily as well.
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Fri 7 May 2010, 10:52, Reply)

Definitely just water
And seems to have dried up, but I'll be keeping an eye on it. It's a brand new bloody car as well.

His was an ancient 205
Sun roof maybe/ Mine leaks on one side the the water runs along the rails and drips exactly where my head is when I drive.

I found this out on my way to a meeting when i decided to pop in and use a car wash, bastard car.

No sun roof.
We've had far heavier rain than we had the other night and it hasn't been affected. Can't see any evidence of where it might have come from so hopefully it's a one-off freak occurence.

/hopes.
( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Fri 7 May 2010, 10:59, Reply)

Mine did that once
it was the foam casing stuff around the door edge that was coming away and so when it rained heavily it all ran down the window and down the plasticy inside door bit and pooled on the carpet, the door interior dried so just the carpet was sopping wet, it took me ages to figure it out.
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Fri 7 May 2010, 10:57, Reply)

I had that problem (among numerous others) with my Laguna
Where it was parked outside the house, the ground sloped slightly to the left. So when it rained, the water coming out of the drain holes in the driver's door flowed into the car instead of out onto the sill.

Poor design - it should have been made such that the hole was actually outside the sill rather than right on top of it.

It's also possible that the leak is coming in from the bulkhead, and dripping down under the dashboard into the footwell. It's a bugger to trace leaks.
( K2k6 has a proper job these days, Fri 7 May 2010, 11:00, Reply)

Try sprinkling cress seeds into the footwell, where they grow best wil be the source of the leak

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Fri 7 May 2010, 11:04, Reply)

No
Where they grow best is the place where the water ends up, not where it comes in.
