I might need an outlet for my habit. So the rules are, you can join in the conversation by taking it in a whole new direction or saying something that just doesn't follow on.

I used to like to take him tea and watch him work when I was a kid. I found out that mum used to do the same thing when she was little.  Fri, 11 Mar 2016 10:10:47 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/bb-social-zone/hijacker/m-p/108546#M7755 Gruffudd 2016-03-11T10:10:47Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/bb-social-zone/hijacker/m-p/108547#M7756 Peppermint tea has to be about the best thing in the world don't you think.
