(As an aside, all this gave me the perfect opportunity to test out the various ways of removing that alluring garlic scent from my hands. Lemon juice left them smelling rather tastily of a Mediterranean salad, but only added to my problems. Baking soda had no discernible effect. Rubbing them on a stainless steel spoon under cold running water seemed to help though - and, combined with a hefty dose of perfumed soap, left them smelling only faintly like a vampire's nightmare. But hey, there are worse things to reek of.)

Beautiful cup of Sen-cha from the Chinese Supermarket near Cowcaddens subway. Much recommended.
