Tea Time!

[Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith]

There's this little coffee bar next door to one of my clients in the city (Melbourne) that makes a truly awesome espresso.  Not too bitter, a lovely rich brown crema, smooth as silk. I ALWAYS get one when I go to that client.  Only $3.50 too.

Ironic.  That's the same amount that the Lock Ness monster tried to extort from Chef's parents for years....

Tree fity? It was about that time, I see a Loch Nay Monster! I say a Loch Nay Monster? Some of us remember that one.

The best tea shop I ever went to was in Ironbridge in Shropshire. It had a huge selection of Teas, more than you can imagine (not-so-obscure Star Wars reference). I had a pot of Japanese Green Stick Tea when there. Very nice, no milk, no sugar. The way it was intended.

Slightly more invigorating than Thai Stick tea?

Roly, I know which shop you mean.  Years ago my daughter lived just up the bank, not far from the Golden Ball.  If you hung rather dangerously out of one window, you could see the Iron Bridge.  They still live nearby so we're often in Ironbridge.

Considering the effects of that particular 'erb, i'd say that the tea is more invigorating, although a lot less interesting.

Not sure where the Golden Ball is, David, as i've only ever been with family when there, and you know what that's like when they set the agenda. Saying that, i've been to Ironbridge several times. Seeing as my dad's family all originate from Oakengates and its environs, it's not surprising. Was never taken to the Wrekin, though. I wonder why?
