Yeah, it's weird: I don't even like the smell of the stuff. Anytime I'm somewhere with a bar, it's like there's this sort of bread-like smell. Yeasty, I guess.

Also, it just reminds me of the lab chemicals we used in chemistry in school! That's seemingly what I associate it with.

Same, I do wonder if it's some sort of sensetivity to the smells and flavours of it, because if I don't like the smell of it, I ain't gonna taste it! XD

I'm the same with coffee , though the smell of that stuff actually makes me feel sick!
 
Well that was worrying

There was a fire related emergency a few doors down from me what the crew couldn't get access to due to parked cars at the entrance of the close... I'm talking a good 16~24 houses not accessible to emergency crews

Hey Shadow Cat :) Hope you're well ^^

Really? It really does baffle me when people don't consider access to entranceways and things like that :/ It's common-sense surely?

It's a British thing, you must have been eble to hear the click of the kettle, and the rip of my tea bag (got Yorkshire Tea teabags and the things are stuck together. Went to tear them apart through the perforated line and I ripped through one of the bags and spilled tea leaves in my mug; my LIFE!)

To quote Ross from Friends, "Why? Why do bad things happen to GOOD people?!"

Clearly not.

Then again if you'd ever work for a place that had restricted access with a clear notice of /don't enter unless given permission/ and multi drop lorry deliveries, then you know people don't keep any consideration of access.. I'm amazed I've not been punched by a delivery driver when I /tell/ him to pay attention to signs

Thankfully not full blown fire but thats beyond the point

It's all good now, the situation has been rectified. I did stand there for a good few seconds though before reacting, just thinking, "Why?...Why does this happen? I ripped it right down the line!" XD

Why even sell teabags like that anyway? It's why I like PG Tips pyramid bags!

Absolutely, it's the principle! I really do think people take liberties these days, it happens near schools where I live at drop off/pick up times - people think they can park where they please just because "they're not staying long"; it's not the point, it's about being considerate to residents and other road users.

I love your avatar btw :)
