- Yeah, me too, also. It also depends on who else is likely to
- be drinking what; if, for example, most present would prefer
- coffee, I'm likely to brew a pot of it, even though I'd have
- preferred tea somewhat, just for the convenience. When my
- current housemate moved in, I tended to drink more coffee (he
- hates tea); since meeting Justin, I've drunk more coffee (he
- tends to prefer tea, though partakes of coffee infrequently).
-
- I'd far rather not use teabags, even though it's possible to
- get good ones (Fortnum's Lapsang are entirely excellent);
- somehow a pot of tea seems so much more welcoming.

- Me too. In one house I shared (Hi, Alex!) we reserved a fridge for
- keeping all our varieties of tea cool; I think we had about thirty
- at the maximum. Mind you, teabags got used frequently; I seem to
- remember calculating that we four had used upwards of a thousand
- in the first few months of living together - but, of course,
- we had many visitors who drank tea.

- >(And does anyone apart from myself like lapsang souchong?)
-
- YES! Oh, yes! There's a very good tarry souchong to be had
- from Harrods, if you didn't know. And - if your budget will
- stretch to it - Fortnum and Mason will sell you Peachbud
- Oolong.
-
- Would you like to meet up for a cup of tea sometime? :)
