I’m usually a C2 sort of guy, but through bad luck and (my own) poor performance, I’ve begun my Sunday morning with a B1. Whilst a bad start to the day, I’m determined not to let it ruin what could be a good Sunday.

Where do you come in on the tea debate?

    D4, but with a shitload of sugar.

    …And ice, 'cause I’m a Southerner, not a Brit. 🤪

      Before the diabetes diagnosis I used to take three sugars in my tea.

      Two years later and I’m not sure I could stomach tea with sugar in it.

        As a student I took three sugars. Then I moved into a house with 4 others none of whom took sugar. For everyone’s convenience I went cold turkey and never looked back. Now I’d spit out tea with a quarter of a spoonful of sugar.

        American here who grew up on southern sweet tea. As an adult I cut the sugar from all tea and never looked back. Although I will occasionally put a little nip of B&B in there.

        I say “shitload of sugar” to be funny, but in reality I make my sweet iced tea with a combination of sugar and stevia, and I try to keep the ratio as low as possible. (Can’t go all stevia 'cause then you get a weird aftertaste.)
