Tea's Proper Use…
Jul 11th
Tea’s proper use is to amuse the idle, and relax the studious, and dilute the full meals of those who cannot use exercise, and will not use abstinence.

Gaga for Tea
Jul 4th
Lady Gaga is bigger than tea! almost… She has become the first living person to have 10 million fans on Facebook.
The 24-year-old Poker Face singer made the breakthrough on Friday, before using the social networking site to thank her fans. “I love you guys so much,” she said in a video posted to her page. “Thank you so much for all of your love and your support, and for sticking by me.”
Apparently not satisfied with the mere 10 million fans, she added: “Become my friend on Facebook ‑ I’ll never forget you.”
Pop the kettle on love and we’ll never forget you either
Dear Sarah Rose
Jul 1st
Dear Sarah Rose
I returned home this evening very much looking forward to reading your new book ‘For All The Tea In China’. Unfortunately my dog eat it.
I would very much like to read your book and would be happy to write a review for you if you or your publisher would care to send me a replacement? I should probably add that I did buy this copy.
I’ll pop the kettle on…
