Entry for 18th December, 2007

I have decided to continue my fortieth birthday celebrations notwithstanding the fact that my birthday was six months ago. I am instituting my new project -
40 Cups of Tea With 40 Friends
Before I reach the age of 41 in six months time, I aim to have 40 cups of tea with 40 friends. The friends can be old or new, and to qualify as a "hit" on the road to the target, my friend must agree to have their photo posted up here on the blog to prove that they have been bagged.
I have chosen tea for obvious reasons: it is the universal social beverage. What better way to celebrate my inevitable advance towards the grave, than by quaffing some Tetley or Earl Grey? But it will not be easy. I will need to average about 7 QCTM (Qualifying Cups of Tea per Month). This will be tough, as I think I only actually have three friends, so you will have to wish me luck.
If you would like to be my friend, and you would like a Qualifying Cup of Tea, let me know. My e-mail is at the top of the screen. I am willing to travel.
