In Czech Republic and in the great city of Prague where I was many years ago I developed a great liking for tea
drinking
....... although I had had teacups in my apartment at home I nevertheless found a shop around the corner that sold tea and I bought some.
The Continental Tea
drinking differed significantly from what I was used to so I mentioned this to a friend and he promptly replied to the effect that he had had the same experience as previous to living and working in Prague Czech Republic he had lived in London.
So each Christmas when he returned to England to see family and friends he went downtown in London and bought packets of tea and his favourite aroma was Earl Gray Tea. After this little talk he then proceeded to the
kitchen and got the kettle switched on and made me a cup of tea. We both pondered for awhile about what to do with the teabags and they caused a litter problem. Nothing to it ... my friend transferred the teabag into a glass and there was no messy mess on the shining clean work surfaces of his kitchen as it was all contained within the glass ........ excellent tea drinking and I love Earl Gray too! Keep on dining ... food and drink is for everybody ...
