Unif Assam Milk Tea

Obviously I got this drink because of the design.
There were two flavours: Milk or coconut.
I liked the way it was like a milk bottle with a cow merged into a teabag to represent the beverage inside which was Assam tea.


I ended up getting the coconut because you don't normally put coconut milk in tea.

There was a strong Assam tea taste but you couldn't really taste the coconut.
Overall, I liked the drink because it was not too sweet.

Broadway Tower - Cotswolds

I was really lucky my brother took me to the Cotswolds because the Broadway Tower was nearby.
He showed me pics of it on google and I was definitely interested.

It was this striking tower against lovely blue skies and endless fields of grass surrounded by deer.

We would have gone up the tower but it was late so it was closed and so was the nuclear bunker but Thankfully there are some photos on Tripadvisor posted by others so you can see what it looks like.

BBC Birmingham at The Mailbox

Birmingham seems to be the centre of everything just like London so I am not surprised that the BBC has a station there.




As I was visiting Birmingham, we stumbled upon BBC Birmingham's Visitor Centre tucked away on Level 3 of The Mailbox.




There is lots to see and you can try your hand at presenting the news or a weather bulletin which is not easy as it looks keeping up with the autocue.



I tried this and it was a brilliant experience.
There is a piece of paper where you note down a reference number to download your video.

My first attempt was good but I cracked up on the second attempt.
I think I managed but I spoke earlier than the cue so the pictures became delayed.

Hunger Breaks - The Bacon sizzler

Intrigued by the bacon patties I decided to give it a try.
As well as bacon they have other options such as steak or breakfast.
For full range, please visit:

Inside the can was baked beans and bacons patties.
I was quite disappointed with the bacon patties because the texture and taste was a bit weird.


The beans on the other hand were better than quite a lot of other brands because it was more savoury than sweet.

Batchelors Cup a soup - Broccoli & Cauliflower

A classic favourite of mine.

Castello Instant custard - No added sugar

Castello Instant custard comes out a nice colour and consistency but unfortunately it is sweet because it has natural sugars.
I was hoping for a mix that wasn't sweet because I want to add sugars to my desired level of sweetness.
As well as the sweetness, there was this strange strong taste of almond.



Sainsbury's Express Porridge Apple & Cinnamon 10x36g

I loved the Apple & Cinnamon porridge by Sainsburys.
They were instant by adding hot water and it wasn't too sweet.
You are supposed to add milk but I prefer adding water so that it doesn't taste too milky.
