Entry for 13th May, 2008

Welcome to the Blog of the Kindly Cuppa
40 Cups of Tea With 40 Friends
is my goal in life.
And it must be done before 10th July.
Click here to find out why.
If you would like to be my friend and earn a QCT (Qualifying Cup of Tea) then let me know.
No. of QCTs to date: 18
I am nearly halfway to my target of 20 QCTs. Here are me and Gordy enjoying a post-badminton brew up at his posh sports club this evening. Fortunately the anti-oxidants in the tea are just managing to keep the blood flowing round through our furred forty-year-old arteries. We are too old and fat for physical exertion. We should be sooking Werthers Originals and playing bowls, not leaping around a badminton court.
Gordy treated me to a luxurious night at his private gym. Personally, I have always been a man who trains in local authority facilities. I believe that it does one's soul good to spend some time sweating amongst the entire spectrum of humanity. In the council gym, we are all united in our hatred of the cramped changing facilities and the dismal water pressure in the showers. The ever-present threat of Legionnaire's Disease from the water fountain only serves to remind us of our mortality and makes life all the sweeter. Sometimes we all sing "The Red Flag" as we dodge the cockroaches that creep around the fetid cubicles in the male toilets.
However, Gordy does not like to sweat with the proles, and is a member of an exclusive gymnasium where only either the very wealthy or the very beautiful are allowed to expose their rarified flesh in the sparkling blue waters of the jacuzzi. I will leave you to decide whether or not Gordy and I are loaded.
