not gonna lie I was a bit worried but all seemed to be ok.

in a lack of communication the kettle was getting descaled. I decided to make a brew. I must admit I knew somthing was wrong when my coffee had a bit of a head on it ...
I only had 1 mouthful (which I swallowed and it was truly foul like a chemically citrus acrid).

I seem to still be here after 4 hrs so no harm done it seems but I wouldn't recommend it as part of a healthy lifestyle. (tho according to Donald trump maybe I won't get COVID now ;) )

lol well if I don't post for a few days you will know why ;)

on a serious note it is really easily done. I am guessing it was watered down and not neat and maybe boiling it broke it down a bit as well .

however I will probably have to have a word with the cleaner next time I see her and ask her not to leave it in the kettle without telling me!

Make hot chocolate with orange branded descaler (dunno was my first GFs house, they were Australian [not a synonym for weird but it might as well be]) and you can get a good third of the way through before wondering why it tastes like a forbidden special edition Whittards spicy chocolate orange.

I think I had this covered.

I did once accidentally get some bleach on my hands and although I did wash my hands I apparently didn’t do a great job.

Had some crisps later on which had a slightly odd taste. Spent some quality time on the toilet the next day. :D
