    Have to agree, horrible stuff.

    And very good guide to the "would you like a drink" minefield.

    I'm absolutely flumoxed when I offer a guest a drink and they refuse all offers. People, you MUST drink something when offered otherwise you give the impression you think the house is infected or something. Its a guest ritual.

            It seems you are encouraging the use of pot... or do I need a new set of spectacles?

                    That would put Britain above us.

                      Yeah I figured out what a tea cosy is AH you bastard


                      Tea is actually very healthy for you. Green tea especially. There was a study that just came out that where the subjects reduced their cholesterol by 10% in like 6 weeks by drinking tea.

                      It also seems to help with digestion.

                      This confirms some anecdotes where the tea seems to "break up" oily meals after you eat them...

                      For those of you having trouble sleeping, try some decaf tea (you gotta get the loose leaf version, none of that crap that comes in processed bags), at night, the L-Theanine in the tea will knock you out cold.

                        No - we drink tea better than they do.

                          Probably, we just drink a lot of it.

                            Like the Aussies drink tea. It reminds of that bit from the Simpsons where they visit Australia:

                            Marge: Can I have a coffee?
                            Bartender: Beer?
                            Marge: No, a coffee.
                            Bartender: Beer.
                            Marge: Cof-fee.
                            Bartender: Be-er.

                              Isn't a pot an object you can put liquids in to boil them, aside from being a herb you can probably make tea out of? (hmm)

                                I don't know, we could ask the kettle but he's not talking to the pot after it called him black.
