Isn't a cup of Tea great?

The solution to all life's problems.

It was in the mid 20's and absolutly pissing down on my way into work so i was soaked getting onto the tram this morning. The carrage was jointed and they didnt turn the AC on so i was sweating like a mofo. The tram ended up getting delayed making me miss a meeting. So i was rightly pissed off at my morning so far.

So out i took a bag of Barry's tea from under my desk and had a cup...so relaxing. Even tho I'm a couple of thousand miles away from home, nothing feels more homely like a cup of tea to solve all your worries.

Is there anything a cup of tea can't solve? Disease? War? Please share your stories of how a cup of tea has saved countless lives.

A good shag, a cup of tea and I'm always happy.

There is always time for a nice cup of tea. Sure didn't our Lord himself on the cross pause for a nice cup of tea before giving himself up for the world?

yerayeah · 27-07-2009 07:07PM

I don't like tea!:eek:

joes girls · 27-07-2009 07:08PM

No matter how bad it gets, the tea will fix it:)

brummytom · 27-07-2009 07:09PM

Tea's nice to wake you up

Milk's the all-purpose drink though

jumpguy · 27-07-2009 07:10PM

I only drink tea in winter when it's bitterly cold/I need something to wake me up so I can study.

Latchy · 27-07-2009 07:11PM

Has anybody seen mrs doyle around ?

It must be time for another cuppa tae !

27-07-2009 07:11PM

I prefer a cup of gee myself.

4zn76tysfajdxp · 27-07-2009 07:12PM

Tea is the best. I would love a cup of tea right now...

Smyth · 27-07-2009 07:13PM

In college, whenever I had an exam at 9 the next morning and I was still up "getting ready to start" I'd pop on the kettle to waste another few mins.

Also, when it's something important, you have to stand and wait for it to boil. During those 3 mins, I didn't have a bother in the world.

Boiling is probably the best bit. Bit of a pavlovian response at this stage for me. I have found myself jumping out of bed at the sound of the kettle. Extremely depressing when someone is using it for coffee or a water bottle or soup...damn you soup

brummytom · 27-07-2009 07:14PM

You wouldn't happen to have any sheep tea would ya?

Latchy · 27-07-2009 07:17PM

Hi , my name is Latchy and I drink tea

dlofnep · 27-07-2009 07:18PM

Yeah, I've noticed that. I used to drink tea when I was in the States and it reminded me of home. Love a good cuppa tae.

DetectivFoxtrot · 27-07-2009 07:19PM

a mug of tea, and throw in a couple of digestives sandwiched together by a layer of butter... now you're talking :pac::pac::pac:

Carsinian Thau · 27-07-2009 07:19PM

Damn you Hazys! Why are you torturing me?

Our kettle is broken. Haven't had tea all day.

Turd Ferguson · 27-07-2009 07:20PM

Tea enema FTW

Faith · 27-07-2009 07:21PM

Nothing beats a good cup of tea. Except maybe sex. Or a nap. In any case, tea is the easiest of all of those to get at a moment's notice, so it wins.

I love tea. I think I'll put the kettle on now.

Isn't it funny how far it goes in helping with a hangover too?

Oh, and Smyth - those 3 minutes of boiling are amazing during exam time!

k8bcly · 27-07-2009 07:22PM

In theory, a recipe for bliss. But who'd be bothered going to the trouble of making tea post-coitally? A ciggie is a lot less hassle. But again, a cup of tea would be the ideal.

On topic though: tea rocks. I'm a major coffee fan too, but whereas I'd only drink coffee at certain times of the day, any time is perfect for tae.

I shall partake of same shortly - with a wafer and cocoa solids-based snack (i.e. a Kit Kat). Yum.

swingking · 27-07-2009 07:27PM

Coffee tbh

Who said anything about "post-coitally?"
I spice things up and do both at the same time.
If I can kill two birds with one stone, sure as hell I can fill two holes with one body simultaneously!

I'm mister lover, lover man. :cool:

Overheal · 27-07-2009 07:29PM

I have tea so rarely. when i do it is a treat.

How long do bags last in the cupboard? I did just smoke a 50 year old cigar the other night apparently. Im guessing 2 year old tea can be much worse for me.

Mossy Monk · 27-07-2009 07:32PM

I hate tea. I also hate coffee.

mental07 · 27-07-2009 07:34PM

I crave tea when I'm hungover. It goes a long way towards curing the hangover, too.
