Tea and ToastSometimes all you want is a little tea and toast. Since there was no milk it had to be OJ. Which is ok as vitamins are needed. It has been 3 days of sore throat and fever, luckily not the swine that is infesting everyone around me. My toast even arrived with a little heart shaped muffin, sweet.

And like the Burger says, 'a cuppa tea solves everything' and the Buns also then pipes in, 'England wouldn't have won the war without tea.' Tea and sympathy and some drugs is what cures the sick. Thanks to the drug provider and tea maker / nurse extraordinnare Dee. She should get a medal for coming so close to the sick, maybe I should start calling her Florence.

OJ in the square

Cheeky oj makers in central Berlin, my memory fails me but I think it was in Postdamer Platz, where there is a weekly Saturday food market. For 1 Euro you got freshly squeezed orange juice which looked and smelled delicious but when you tasted it, it was extremely sour!

It took me about half an hour to finish a tiny glass as I thought my mouth would remain in a constant pucker but my travel partner drank theirs in one gulp! Was very happy I did not order the large glass.

The entertainment value was worth it, these boys were performing their oj squeezing with flare and were mucking around for the camera. The one shielding himself said his girlfriend gets jealous if other girls take pictures of him (?)
