Twinings is good but Taylors of Harrogate is amazing. Just hard to get hold of it.

Mrs F brings me a mug of tea in bed every morning, no milk, no sugar. No idea what's on the label, she buys it not me.
Coffee the rest of the day and sometimes a cup of Redbush (like Flowermyth) in the evening as it's caffeine free.

Not normal Taylors, I only do Earl Grey. I meant Taylors is the daddy over Twinings for Earl Grey.

When we stay in a hotel or B&B we take our own tea bags,M&S Luxury Gold,as we can't be bothered with the standard fare provided,usually PG or Tetleys.We had a holiday in a hotel in Southwold a few weeks ago but forgot to take our own tea.Unable to face up to the prospect of drinking PG I bought a box of Taylors Yorkshire tea.I now flit between that and the M&S variety, but mostly drink the Yorkshire, though my wife and daughter have remained loyal to the latter.I'll have to subject them to a taste test.

PG for me , got 3 x boxes stocked up in my cupboard as I drink the stuff all day long , should really try & cut down

I tried the English Breakfast tea recently & is very decent King , but tend to just buy the odd box to alternate now as I think you get bored of the same brand just like anything else in life Blush

"Bit of a contradiction there treble. No real man would drink tea."
What an outrageous thing to say. It was real men drinking tea who built the empire.
Try telling the peace loving pygmies of umboto gorge that they didn't face real men.

I drink anything as long as it's not too bitter. Yorkshire/COOP Fair trade/PG/Typhoo.
Some I've tried, Nambarrie I think was one of them, are really bitter and horrible.

I make it in the mug but when I do it properly, milk first and then pour from a pot, it really does seem to taste better.

If you're a mug only person, give that a try, live a little.

For the past year I've been on Yorkshire Tea.  I let the kettle boil and then give it a minute to settle.  I then pour the water into a cup with one teabag and no sugar.  It is then left for 5 minutes, sometimes a little longer but never shorter.  I will stir the tea occasionally.  When the time is up, I remove the teabag and add just a drop of skimmed milk.  I like my tea strong.  I always start the day with two cups of tea as I tend to be dehydrated after a night's sleep.  These are then followed by a bowl of porage, but that's for another thread.

Yorskshire Tea is strong enough anyway .. but 5 minutes in the cup ... bloody thing'll be cold by that time Plain

I'd have to dump it & make another one instead Scared

Flowermyth, have you tried Dragonfly Cape Malay Chai? Makes a refreshing change to the Vanilla Rooibos. Best drink this without milk or sugar.

Good afternoon, Foinavon.

Did the fellow with the geocache puzzle ever reveal the answer?
By:

When: 22 Aug 15 16:19
Not that I'm aware of Pokermonster, perhaps we should ask him.
I didn't bother doing the spadework on the banknote images one as one the key had been cracked I lost interest.
There are some good coding puzzles in the cipher book I mentioned. Quite enjoyable to do.
There was a time when a friend and I used to exchange messages using an Enigma simulator. Often wonder if it attracted the attention of "Eve" over in the USA. Never had a knock on the door though.

You sound like a kindred spirit, Foinavon.  I devoted ten years to embedding a code within a book; it was as fascinating as it was infuriating.

It's having a particular mindset Pokermonster, probably why we are on here. I like all sorts of puzzles and played chess most of my life. Not really into card games though and have never played Poker for blood.

I'd not heard of that one, F, but it sounds very enticing as I have tired a little of the vanilla one and didn't fancy the Earl Grey version. I'll look out for it, thanks.

Royal Blend from F&M. A blend of Assam and Ceylon that is particularly refreshing. Dark in colour but light in taste. Loose or bags.
