Invictus_88 Timeless Visage Foetus In Fetu I like the smell of coffee but not the taste.
I've never tried it, but do people here think that Bovril is probably > coffee?Yes. Although thats not too hard.

Mmm I like both tea and coffee, however I would have to say that I drink tea more often out of the two. I cant wait to visit Britain and taste a real cup of tea though. I'm sure it's much better than anything I make at home.

...there's also the risk that you'll have grown to love bad tea. Much like most children and their love of bad chocolate.

Invictus_88 It depends where you go really, it could easily not be.

I like the tea I make, other people praise me for my teamaking and are also impressed with it.
Though sometimes, on occasion, I'm still insecure as to whether I'm doing it properly.
One of these days I'll decide that whatever tradition says, I'm still better at it.
However, not yet.

ninja If you enjoy the way you make it and others do as well, then what does it matter if it's done properly or not. It's good.. that's all that really matters in the end.

Having said that I like coffee, I can't stand BAD coffee.

I am fond of tea, but I don't drink it regularly. Unlike my parents, I do not have a caffeine addiction or a voluminous gut that can take in the huge intake of tea of the average Brit. I'm sure I'll get used to it eventually.
Although tea is part of the British stereotype, we are not actually the world's greatest tea consumers. That honour goes to the Irish, and Ireland is at least part of the British Isles (if not the UK), so it nearly counts.
"Will ye be having a cup of tea? Go on. Go on, go on. Go on go on go on go on..."

Yeah, you pretty much have to make it yourself.

I overdid the tea yesterday. >.< Didn't realise I had two teabags in the pot. I knew I would be pushing it even if I hadn't but...
So I'm a bit tired, due to the fact I was still very awake at 1.30 am.
It was stress related. Could have all been averted by having a chocolate stash but it was eaten. I didn't fancy trying to get the last crumbs out of the mousetraps.

How much did you drink? Because I've drunk a lot of tea and never overdone it, yet.

It was only 4 cups in the space of two hours. Which I know isn't a huge amount even if the cups were really mugs and three of the mugs I had accidently made double strength. It was mixed with stress though and I had been trying to cut down a little.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure that was the reason I was still lying awake in bed thinking "Whee!! want to run around and do mad stuff!! and be really awake!!! Wheeee!!!" at 1.30am on a school night.
Still haven't caought up on that sleep yet.
