Twinings Ceylon Teabags:

'A bright, amber tea that is very refreshing and thirstquenching.'

Wrong.

'A bland, weak tea that tastes of very little.'

Does anyone have a better experience?

Tesco had no Lapsang Souchong, which is one of the only teas for a hangover.

Can you please elaborate on this bit of information. I'm intrigued.

1. If you mean 'one of the only' is peculiar linguistically, then I can rephrase. One of my unique habits.

2. I di not have a hangover yesterday, but on the odd occasion I do.

3. On those occasions there are the extremely rare few when it is nigh on impossible to swallow anything for the first few hours.

4. On that infinitessimally small number of occasions, Lapsang Souchong can provide a really refreshing pick-me-up. It is the smoky fragrance of the tea that I like so much. Builder's tea (which needs another thread) is simply stomach churning.

I discovered this on holiday with my father on a narrow boat in Cheshire, following a day of heavy gin abuse and pea throwing.

I have also grown tired of the wink emoticon.

Bad-ish mood today. :angry:
