Thread: Tea anyone ??!!

Well..........since it's morning or was when ya posted this..I would've suggested the tea otherwise yer mornin would probably last forever.....save the whiskey fer supper and a pipe. I'm tellin ya though caused I'm biased,....yer missin out by not tryin good black English tea....yep. Missin it ya are ... Nice hearty cuppa black with bacon and poached egg on toast or maybe a little fried fish and eggs.....Have ya had Marmite toast yet ? Or Scots toast ??

I did this today...



I'm quite getting in to this tea thing. I've been researching pu-erh tea. I think I need some raw pu-erh, from the wild forests in Xishuangbanna. I mean, who doesn't?

This one here looks OK.

I guess one could always pull the little cake apart just like with a larger one?

Just the fact that you can put something like that in a post is impressive to me. Damned if I know how to work technogogee...tichnogolgee...this damn computer that well!

'Tis easy, Alt+Print Screen (or PrtSc on my laptop), go to GIMP (my image manipulation program) make a new image, paste it in, crop, round corners filter, export as jpg, done!

I was checking reviews of tea shops in San Francisco's Chinatown. This place seemed to take top honors. From the reviews, the family run place is very friendly and can't help but to show their passion for tea. It looks to be a place where one can go, shop, learn and try teas prior to purchase. Now, I just need to get my butt down there and check it out!!

It is good looking out Carl!
If you can not disassemble, is no problem.

Nightblade.... you're a bloody legend!

I gave your advice a crack WRT making iced tea and it works a treat! I have a batch going on 3 days now and it still tastes as good as the day I brewed it! (And better than that store bought lolly water too if you ask me )

Thanks again Mate for some great advice.

You're welcome Luke...glad I was able to help..cheers !

I know I would like it just the same...so...after watching said Vid and listening to this whiney modern brat cry about how scared he was to try...what ??.....something salty. Maybe it's just the fact that I have eaten tons of Marmite toast(this kid couldn't even hardly put butter on his) ....I mean seriously....man up..butter the toast which means put some bloody butter on the bloody toast,put some Vegemite on the sucker and eat it or don't. You'de think the way he was acting that he was eating a live eel or something. Guess I'm a dinosaur...why live? Man....I need to get to the store and buy me some mite any kinda mite...I'm gettin the cravings for tea and mite.....dang !!!!! I love tea and Marmite toast mmm nom nom !

TODAY GENTLEMAN....I AM GOING TO COSTPLUS WORLD MARKET.......and I'm gettin me a bloody jar of Marmite cause I gots the Marmite jeebies bad ! Might pick up some Barrys Irish tea also....maybe a cup.....this might get ugly.....d'oh !!
