I haven't visited Thailand though, so if I'm lucky enough to do so, I'll have to remember to take some with me.Deborah Carr (Debs)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03223653554549707595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34330113.post-59019380290664206512012-05-20T10:12:09.247+01:002012-05-20T10:12:09.247+01:00Thank you for being here Jenny!

Even now my father brings large bags of PG Tips back to Florida with him after every visit to me in the UK (and he's not English!)<br /><br />lxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02744937536946299450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34330113.post-26784749164621118032012-05-20T09:33:54.092+01:002012-05-20T09:33:54.092+01:00Hello, thank you so much for having me Liz.
Jo, ...Hello, thank you so much for having me Liz. <br /><br />Jo, yes I ask EVERYONE to bring tea. I bring it, my family and all my husband's colleagues! They do sell it here but it's very expensive. <br /><br />I've had to get used to so many things new things and tea is just one of them!Jenny Beattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640209636605410939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34330113.post-82355427065220343132012-05-20T09:18:55.173+01:002012-05-20T09:18:55.173+01:00Oh that cup of cooling water with the tea bag stil...Oh that cup of cooling water with the tea bag still in the saucer - no, that can never be Proper Tea. But sometimes it's the best you can do. (Do you have friends from the UK who can send tea bags, bring them when they visit?)<br /><br />I know it's very British - but, like you, builders' tea is one of the few things I miss when I'm away. I get used to the dishwater-stuff, as it's better than nothing. But that first cup of tea when I get home is wonderful!JOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03127111575563904349noreply@blogger.com
