    I have on average 10 cups of tea a day.

    Although today I am only on my 3rd and not enjoying it.

    Same here, at least ten. Love tea so much. Especially with biscuits

    I love me cuppa Lyons tae. Extra quality extra flavour Lyons the quality tae. Remember that ad. I always hum that tune when I'm making a cup of the finest.

    I’m a total tea whore, they all taste good to me. I was brought up on Lyon’s but in college, I’d buy whichever was 100% extra free to save money - Tetley’s, Punjana, Lyon’s, Barry’s, whatever. Then I lived in the UK for a while and tended to buy Yorkshire. Now I buy many different types at home again. The only ones I don’t buy are the very cheapest make that Aldi and Lidl do - they ARE bad. But the more expensive (but still cheap) tea that Aldi and Lidl do are as nice as any. I honestly don’t discern much difference between the different teas. They all taste good to me.

    The only thing worse than journalists not reading scientific/academic journal articles, cherry picking conclusions without context and sensationalising them for clickbaity headlines, is people commenting on the excuse for a journalists badly written ****e and making the journalists nonsense the fault of the people who wrote the original paper.

    Want to know what's going on, read the material, not what Tim with an Arts degree who's dads friend got him a job for the sunday world has to say about the material.

    You’re grand! It’s only those weirdos who drink tea without milk in it! Most of us in Ireland don’t drink boiling hot tea. It’s well stewed and cooled.
