Helly Welly Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I can't function until i've had a cupa of rooibos tea, naturally decaf. Can only drink decaf coffee as well. Since i decided to stop using caffeine i now go freaky if i have too much. I can just about get away with the odd latte, thank goodness.

Cate in NZ Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 My darling hubby always used to make a cup of tea every morning for me to drink in bed whilst he showered and got ready for work . It was such a lovely way to wake up. These days I have to make my own Still can't start the day without a good hot cup of redbush (roobois) tea with a little bit of milk, followed by a cup of coffeee to really get me going when I arrive at work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I'm another whose hubby makes me a brew first thing. He leaps out of bed at the crack of dawn while it takes me a good half an hour to wake up enough to poke a leg out from under the covers Lovely to have a cuppa by the bed to down before I venture further! Very strong tea for me with a hint of semi skimmed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I'm an up and at 'em sort in the morning, Snowy - you'd hate me being all cheery and humming to myself Phil doesn't do mornings, he's like a cold lizard at that time of the day; needs to get up to working temperature.

My worst experience was sharing a hotel room with a friend and colleague whilst at a conference, and she is just like that! I remember coming too at 5.30am and she was sat on the end of my bed talking ten to the dozen, planning our day and our pre breakfast swim I remember grunting 'Just get me a black coffee and then I'll talk' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helly Welly Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I HATE mornings! I sit on the sofa for a good hour before i'll even contemplate getting dressed, let alone anything else. Left to my own devices, i don't wake uo until about 11am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Mornings Yukk, at a weekend I eat my breakfast in bed and read the paper or my book and get dressed at about 9.30 - 10 if we have nowhere to go. I am first up all week at 7am so I like someone else to deliver my breakfast if possible, sometimes I get lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocchick Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I quite like mornings, but OH is near unconscious until lunchtime and thinks 8am is early I've normally had about 3 cups of tea by the time he crawls out of bed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louise Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 No 8am is a luxury I never get This morning I was up at 4.30 in the car at 6.50 and at my desk - so to speak by 7.45 I hadn't intended bein up quite that early but the darned birds were twittering so loud they woke me but I would have been up at 5 any way I do drink tea in the morning usually 3 cups nice and strong with a dash of skimmed I'll get semi in if you ever visit Christian I never drink coffee gave it up due to insomnia about 2 years ago and it really helped and I don't drink normal tea after about 10am for the same reason but I love some herbal teas really into a Yogi tea with oriental spices and liquorice at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
