he might be able to get you a deal on a cheap Italian sports car. However like his teabags, it probably comes with strings attached.

If he did, at least it wouldnt be orange, unlike if Yorkshire Tea supplied one 😉

Honestly Stoner, you are a hard guy to please.
Oh well, your loss. 🙂

Don't listen to CHB. Only one place to go for your earl grey and that is Twinings. Sorry CHB but you have to admit defeat on specialist teas

Earl Grey - eeewwww! Horrid perfumed nastiness. Green, silver needle, Oolong; definitely. Earl Grey: (makes spitting noise).

Two things,

1) I've never got on with Yorkshire Tea. Maybe it's a Pennines thing. If the lovely Carol would be up for teabagging me I'd be more than willing to give it a second chance.

2) This 'attaching a bit of card to a teabag with some string' phenomenon makes me want to drown puppies. When the measure of a premium brew isn't good tea but the frelling paper it's wrapped in, I weep for humanity. Exactly what First World Problem is this supposed to address, those poor neglected souls who were born without teaspoons? Take your "C24" and shove it up your 'arris, the gorram thing leaps into the cup as soon as you pour water on it anyway (unless you're drinking from something girlie rather than a proper mug I suppose).

This thread has made me very happy.

Stoner has brought a splendidly ridiculous problem to the table, and y'all have solved it with good humour, ingenuity and acute ridiculousness, many times over, in 3 pages of gibberish.

Chapeau, everyone. 😀

Pretty much by definition really, it's what we do. That's a deliciously succinct somethingion.

It's because it's crap.

Anyway this is the real solution

Surely the "tag on a string" is to loop round the handle allowing the bag to be held mid cup so allowing better percolation of the contents?
And I certainly wouldn't use a ferrous metal spoon to retrieve the bag, or even worse do that squeegeeing thing against the side of the cup - uch!

As always this can always be fixed by reverting to the only real solution

Never tried TWG bags, but their Singapore Breakfast Tea is one of my favourites - can only seem to find it at Harrods though, not my favourite store but usually pick some up if I'm passing by.

I too am astonished at the high tea company employee count in here.

They're all out there now, toiling in the heat, on the south facing slopes of the pennines, picking the finest, youngest tips. And cutting long lengths of string into lots of short lengths of string.

Kind of cute looking, and certainly no tails.
Baby sloth resents being called ugly!

They're cute when they're young, but a bit leary when they grow up

Four pages and 112 posts on how to carry around a few teabags. Only on STW could this occur. 😉

I am indebted to johnj2000 🙂
Have dispatched Mrs Stoner to work armed with a cornucopia of tea based products and a couple of natty boxes to carry them in.
