It’s that time of year that I love so much. To those that know what I’m talking about, I raise a glass & say chin up my dears, see you on the other side.
Well my little sea-monkeys, this year instead of music I'm making you all a cuppa. What can I say, time's are tight.

Tim - Lapsang Souchong
Betty - Yorkshire tea (my personal favourite)
Geoff – Peppermint
Wyndham - espresso, 2 sugars
Billy - Rooibos
Llewtrah - Camomile
LC - Hemlock
Rockmother – Tea with a cheeky drop of brandy
Ben – Gunpowder tea
Clair - Assam
GG - Darjeeling
Marsha - A dab of Rioja
BiB – Black tea with lemon & sugar
Bowleserised - Finest Rose Pouchong (no, me neither. Apparently Twinings does it.)
Del - Oolong

Emordino - Chai
Alda - Rosehip & Hibiscus
GSE - Jade Pillar White Leaf
Bedshaped - Jasmine
Boz - Yerba Mate

Merry Xmas!

Ooh, just what I needed. And so appropriate, as Whittard's bites the dust.
In fact, I'm a bit of a Yorkshire junkie too, but I do like a drop of Lapsang now and then, for a change. Smells oddly of Vosene, but in a good way.
Thanks, babe. And you have a good one.
Darling, thank you. That's exactly how I have it. And I'm going to go and make myself a celebratory cup and write your name on it in indelible ink.
They say it'll all be over by Christmas. Fingers crossed and let's congratulate each other on Boxing Day.
Brilliant! Thank you!
I have never tried Yerba Mate so I will seek it out, just because of this.
You have significantly enhanced my life. have a splendiferous Christmas!
Excellent choice. I'm just glad it wasn't Lapsang or Earl Grey.
Pass the milk.
Ooh, that's nice, but you realise I won't be able to sleep now!
Ooooh, lovely!
Did I tell you about the advent calendar I saw in Berlin? It had a tea bag for every day of the advent. At 25€ it seemed a bit steep (ho ho) though.
Thanks Annie. But I have always hated green tea. Happy Christmas anyway though, I suppose.
Thank you Annie, I'll never say no to a nice cup of Earl Grey.
Boz - let me know what the yerba maté is like, as I'm keen to try it out once I've stopped breastfeeding.
Happy Christmukkah Annie!
ooh - especially given what Jade Pillar actually refers to.
Lucky Bowleserised btw - that stuff is lovely
Chai is the most delicious of all hot drinks. Thank you very much. And happy Christmas!
... oh noes, now I'm one of those people who accidentally post anonymously. Those people are losers.
Thank you but peppermint plays havoc with my osophageal sphincter.
Enjoy the break!
Merry Christmas, all! Annie, you could re-gift it, that's what Christmas is all about. Or swap with Geoff.
Con-Air is on the TV tonight, hurrah!
You know what I'd like for Christmas? I'd like a goodwill panda.
Thank you for that - an ass I surely am. B'doomtish.
Have a great break.

Cor - an infusion! :-)
Can I have some Cognac in mine?
Oo long? Flattery will get you everywhere. What's that? Tea? Ah. Right...
Thanks! Happy Chrimbleton. Sorry I didn't send you a card. I meant to ask for your address, but then forgot. And then the last post had gone and it would've been a feeble gesture. I only bought crap Tesco ones anyway, so you didn't exactly miss out...
Yorkshire tea isn't far off. I like really stewed up Tetley tea, with soya milk. I think this means I'm *strange*.
May glad tidings be with you at this time of year (I'm fed up of saying "merry Christmas").
Thanks kitten! Hope it's a good (or at least bearable) one and that we might be able to raise a real, rather than a virtual glass in 2009?
Ooh, Jasmine. Lovely. Even though I'm more of a coffee drinker, but hey....thanks Annie.
And a merry christmas to you.

That last comment of mine sounded horribly ungrateful, I've just realised. I was just being a bit funny. No, not that funny. Happy chrustmas lovely Annie Slaminsky, you of the greatest name on earth.

Rah! Merry Xmas! Marsha, most definitely, I hope to visit your fine city and GSE's new home this year.
Annie A, I know you were being funny, my love. Happy chrustmus to you xxx
