Hardly any sleep, and I'm not a morning person even at the best of times, and also my hands don't generally work right for about half an hour after I wake up.

So naturally I went to get an emergency cuppa, only to find the teabag thing needs refilling. No worries, there's an unopened box of Yorkshire in the cupboard. But my stupid hands just would not work, I'm stood there sort of ineffectually pawing at the sealed edges of the plastic for about two whole minutes getting increasingly annoyed and swearing at it out loud...and then I realise there's one of those easy open strip things that you just have to pull.

FML. I've never been more grateful for half day Fridays.

I can imagine the panic at the sealed, unreachable tea. Not a good start to the day!

“and then I realise there's one of those easy open strip things that you just have to pull.“

Nothing quite like the realisation you’re being a plonker to start the day! Half day sounds a really good shout to be honest, I might just join you in that.
