As I am sitting in bed with my first cuppa of the day I wondered which brand you particularly liked. Teapigs Everyday Brew brew starts my day off nicely.

I'm doing the same Nankate but it's Rington's for me.

Co-op 99 - leaf tea (which is getting more squeezed on the shelves)

I've got a fasting blood test this morning so I am really missing my 2 cups of pg tips, leaf tea, from a china mug, in bed watching breakfast.

ninathenana Wed 30-Nov-16 07:58:00

PG for me too. and the china mug smile
Hope you don't have to wait long before you can have yours kitty

Kate it has to be Yorkshire tea. Nothing else hits the spot.
Hope you enjoy your concert.

A nice china mug of black Earl Grey for me, courtesy of DH.

settle for PG now but loved N.A.A.F.I red label.I have a china mug for tea and a pyrex one for coffee.

Tetley decaf. I also have some tea bags with licorice in which I enjoy. We love our teasmade first thing in the morning.

It's Yorkshire for me too, in a china mug. When I'm oop north with the family it's Ringtons!

grannypiper Wed 30-Nov-16 09:05:03

WOO HOO Just found Ringtons who made NAAFI tea, this has just made my year

Greyduster Wed 30-Nov-16 09:21:40

Golly, grannypiper I'd forgotten about N.A.A.F.I red label; we used to have that! For me now, though I am not a big tea drinker, it's TickTock redbush. I can't drink anything else. DH has Yorkshire Tea.

Loose leaf Ceylon tea, Taylor's of Harrogate if I can get it, Waitrose own brand if I can't. Afternoon, Earl Grey ditto and at other times, Roiboos. Never have milk or sugar with any of them.

no tea for me as i don't drink it - but i'll have coffee instead. most times it's instant but now and again i'll get the filter jug out or use my tassimo.

Linsco56 Wed 30-Nov-16 10:35:48

I drink far too much tea! Having third mug of Twinings English Breakfast as I'm typing this. brew

Floradora9 Wed 30-Nov-16 10:49:42

I just hate a cup of tea in bed it reminds me of being in hospital .

kittylester Wed 30-Nov-16 11:08:21

In case anyone is worried about me - I've had my tea and some toast and marmalade now!! [gin]

harrigran Wed 30-Nov-16 11:22:24

GIN kitty ? Pleased to hear the test is over and you got your cuppa, not sure about the alcohol at this time of day though grin

Craftycat Wed 30-Nov-16 11:40:38

Tetley's Redbush with just a little milk & I still take sweeteners. In a fine china mug please.Always 2 before I get out of bed in the morning.
Gave up black tea once we tasted this & it is actually good for you too.

LadyGracie Wed 30-Nov-16 12:00:58

A mug of black M & S strong loose leaf tea with half spoon of sugar, love it, although it plays havoc with my teeth, I'm our hygienists best customer, for getting stains removed.

Jinty44 Wed 30-Nov-16 12:01:10

Clipper Earl Grey; loose leaf if I have the time, teabags mostly if not.

Kim19 Wed 30-Nov-16 12:02:38

Never touch the stuff. Have you seen what it does to the inside of teapots/cups.

No thanks. Have tried. Can't get past the awful aroma. Ugh! Okay, bring on the avalanche of disputers!

Morning ladies!!!

radicalnan Wed 30-Nov-16 12:06:18

Yorkshire tea for me too. I agree it stains the cups and pot my uncle (an alcoholic) used to start his day with 2 cans of arger for that very reason.

leeds22 Wed 30-Nov-16 12:06:33

Taylor's China Rose Petal for me, courtesy of DH before I can surface.

Charleygirl Wed 30-Nov-16 12:07:52

I have not drunk tea for over 50 years. I prefer M&S instant coffee and I rarely drink anything else, certainly not in the morning.
