How mant times can you re use a tea bag?

[sarabande]

Don't you empty them, refill, and resew them, like everyone else ?

 

[mainshiptom]

until they go green? or start to smell?

I suppose it depends on what you are using it for?

I used to work with a guy who reckoned 6 or 7 times and he used to hang them out to dry too. Honestly!

Guess that was why he could afford an open top sports car and a place in France where he used to take his significantly younger other half!

A useful way of applying fake tan to my legs.

I've also found teabags in the fuel tank to be a useful method of preventing black soot coming from the exhaust at full throttle, especially the case with Yanmar 3GM.

Aha ... I've got a fuel filter so there! I use them to wipe my bottom, the pg tips in particular soothe and cool as well as clean.

A chap in our workshop used to dry them out with the compressed airline, until they got so weak they didn't colour thewater.
I guess it depends how weak your willing to drink it, or how tight you are!!!!

Yep something like that! He had a string across the station sink. The first time I worked there I thought I was being wound up.

I'm still using the one they gave me when I joined the army in 66'. still got a bit of life left in it, but I dont use it for guests, they get the one I was issued with when I left the army!
