This morning make pot of tea for me and Missus, bacon and toast on, fancy another cup of tea(always black for me) while the coffee brews so bung another tea bag in the cup, drink that down then pour in the black coffee, drain that then see the tea bag still lying in the cup...Didn’t taste at all bad.
Some great discoveries eg penicillin have resulted by chance. Should I apply for patent for this Cofftea?

Nah I done that back in the late 80s when I drank both.... Only I called it Teacoff.
Sales were disappointing tbh and I'm still working as a result of not raking in millions.
Also tried mixing coffee with horlicks... That did not go well let me tell you.
I can still taste it... Yuk😏

Coffee and horlicks? One drink wakes you and the other helps you sleep. Which one will win?
Reminds me of a game I'd play where I'd take some laxative and imodoium to see which one would take effect first. Let me tell you the tension was edge of the seat stuff.
And although my eyes were open
They just might as well be closed

Love it.
Aye I did enjoy a cup of horlicks in my teenage years.... I was a total tearaway me min.
But then I wanted more... I couldn't get what I wanted from ordinary hot drinks so I started to mix them... I thought I could handle it... I kept telling myself that I could stop at any time.
Then one day while on a camp coffee high I seen the light and changed my life around.... I discovered lager... It was all good after that...
Honest!!! 😂

What would happen if you left the fridge door open in a sealed kitchen? Does the fridge cool the whole room down or does the fridge motor heat the whole room up?

Oof... Getting into some deep thinking here.
Whole room heats up as well as the inside of the fridge is it not?
In a related... But unrelated fashion...
I have been known to occasionally put the sugar container in the fridge and put the milk where the sugar normally sits next to the kettle after making a cup of tea. I have done this on 4 or 5 occasions over the last couple of years.
I'm wondering if I damaged my brain when I was hooked on many hot beverages in my younger years.
Hey ho... World keeps spinning 🤔

There used to be a quip when someone asked how’d you like your coffee
Answer:- “Just like my Wimmin - strong and black!”
That would be ahem.beyond the pale now, but I would suppose “strong and hot”
would just about scrape past the PC censors.
As far for sleep inducing, I find taking a nice big Trollope to bed does the trick..
