If that double X had been XY where would you be. Is being a male a disability with no hope

DJLippy you are the only person that makes any sense here. Felt very lonely till I saw your post and I LOVE tea!

Fishywishyhead · 28/06/2018 05:13

M&S Kenyan tea is an addictive revelation!

MrsTerryPratchett · 28/06/2018 02:35

AngryAttackKittens it is isn't it? I just love it!

SomeDyke · 28/06/2018 02:21

Chanakara Vanilla Honeybush

Is that what MN are having us call lady parts now?

So glad it wasn't just me (as a coffee dyke) being a bit worried that a type of tea just screams lesbian sex! Crooned by K D Lang!

I never liked herbal teas - the scent promised everything, but they tasted like hot water that had been messing with the pot pourri.......

Terry, that's the most British thing I've ever seen. Like the Brit equiv of the Aussie video where an old bloke is in a little boat and a juvenile great white is swimming alongside raising its head out of the water trying to get at whatever fish he has and he thumps it on the nose and tells it to fuck off.

DJLippy · 28/06/2018 01:25

Yorkshire Tea all the way.

Do you lot brew it the proper way - five minutes and then a proper good straining or are yes all a munch of soft southern jessies?

MrsTerryPratchett · 28/06/2018 01:22

I'm going to be in the UK with my lovely DH, DBro and DF all of whom are male last time I checked in two days so I can drink proper bloody tea.

LightofaSilveryMoon · 28/06/2018 01:17

Glengettie tea. Now, there's a name to conjure with!

Goodnight, all!

MountainPeakGeek · 28/06/2018 01:15

@mancheeze Stash Teas do a v.nice organic Vanilla Honeybush. (Not sure if that's a brand that's available in the UK though, as I'm in Canada.)

Kleptronic · 28/06/2018 01:15

I like Orange Pekoe myself, and it's hard to find and all, but epic. Worth the ferreting about for it.

ElenOfTheWays · 28/06/2018 01:12

Tetley. Boiled orange in a builder's boot with last week's milk.
Proper man tea. Smile

FireFartingDuck · 28/06/2018 01:00

I think coffee at this time of night is probably what caused half these crazy ideas in the first place. I shall settle for a nice Aldi red label, tea bag left in a short while, then squeezed like a grandma squeezing a baby's cheek, and a splash of milk.
No airs or graces, me.

mancheeze · 28/06/2018 00:58

So, what kind of tea does everyone prefer?

Good question. I like strong tea so I buy Twinings Irish Breakfast for a caffeinated tea but for herbal I like Twinings Vanilla/Chamomile.

My all time fave tea which I can't find anymore is this one:
Chanakara Vanilla Honeybush

AngryAttackKittens · 28/06/2018 00:58

Green tea with jasmine currently! Not pre-processed through the bum of any small animals because ew why does anyone think that's a good idea?

pombear · 28/06/2018 00:57

Yep, FireFartingDuck, with you on that one. Maybe it's not a kickstarter project. (And looking into the poor animal husbandry for civets now pooing coffee beans, I'm backing away quickly).

Shall we just keep firing away from our firey duck-arses for the rights of women and girls, and stay away from coffee? Maybe even stray towards AAK's 'scented teas'?

FireFartingDuck · 28/06/2018 00:51

I'm not sure I'd want to clean the filters...

pombear · 28/06/2018 00:44

Don't understand the concept of tea at all - coffee all the way. I respect Fika blend by Taylors all the way. Now can't start the day without it.

Wondering, since we started the concept of ducks and fire, FireFartingDuck maybe, like the civet poo coffee, there's a brand of duck poo coffee just waiting to be marketed to the wider world?

I can relate to that my sister insists on some fine estate stuff while I drink happy shopper coffee

I do love some scented teas but someone once served me Earl Grey with milk and it was...odd. Green tea lattes even odder. Some teas just don't go with dairy.

FireFartingDuck · 28/06/2018 00:33

AAK I used to think I loved Earl Grey, but it was an affectation. When I learned to actually assert myself, I realized it was a bit like drinking fragrant washing up water.
