So, this girl in my flat has had a rather small box of tea bags in her cupboard since September. She mentioned it today when I was brewing some cheap Assam, saying that she thought that she drank tea all the time. Apparently not. I think the British don\’t so much adore tea as drink it to prove their very British-ness. Interesting holdover from colonialism, really.
(I\’m not really serious about this assessment. It just struck me.)
