I drink a cup of boiling water with slices of lemon in it every morning as it cleans your insides of toxins, then i drink TETLEY for the rest of the day! xx

I have had a good think about it this morning and I still cant find anything appealing about teabags.... Nice cup of coffee for me.

Dont use teabags,prefer loose tea it makes a better cuppa, ita all tea with very little dust,Put it into a tea caddy for storage & any dust accumalating at the bottom can be washed away before refilling. Have used PG Tips for many years. The family .even my grandkids, always say they like my tea best & its from a teapot! Shirley (getting a bit long in the tooth)

Tetley tea made with Yorkshire water. The water here is so much different to the water down south, you really can taste the difference when you drink tea, especially when you have it black like me. Jack x

Well, Benders, I don't mind 'ordinary' tea, as long as it's got lemon in it, not milk. I hate milk in anything. Mainly I drink fruit or herbal teas, but coffee is my favourite - fresh-ground, dark roast Arabica beans. Love the smell and the taste. I agree with the other gardeners about tea bags. Ours always compost down without any trouble - and there's nothing like adding good compost when you're digging. CB >|<

I agree with you Wendy....there are some teabags that are just plain nasty! Stick with coffee I think as I find it much more palatable......Bev x

Was never a big tea drinker. Hate the stuff even moreso since the tea factory my husband worked for made him redundant, and relocated to Liverpool! So I'm boycotting all teabags from Liverpool now. LOL Christine

Sorry, Bendy, did not answer your question. Got quite carried away, I use PG Tips although sometimes I have a Guinness instead. len

Following advice from a BBC gardening programme, I put the damn things in my compost bin. True, the innards rot away but bags are not biodegradable. Best drop them down the loo and flush. len
