Following on from my partner's own habits, when having (typically herbal) tea, I often pick two different flavours and mix them.

I was looking when a staff member who was clearingtables and looked at me insistently. I smiled, she did not move. 'Are you all right sir?' -- 'yes, thanks I'm just looking at what teas you have trying to decide'.

Since she was not moving, I took one elderflower Darjeeling, one elderflower apple, and the cup of hot water I had just poured. This did not make her happy: 'sir, just to inform you that it is only one tea bag at a time and for lounge consumption early'.

I'd rather not comment or I might sound mean.

As they say signs of times to come ? Or the writing is on the wall ?
