... a cup of tea, at this particular moment in time.

So how do you take yours?
I go for minimum water-to-milk-and-tea ratio, and just show it the sugar.

Well I'm having one anyway. You're welcome to join me.

Claire my lady - a new interpretation of the 5-o-clock-tea? Oh dear.

I'd like to join in for the 9-o-clock-tea, white, with sugar and accompanied with butterscones.

Don't always put milk in it : depends what kind of tea it is. If it's green, I just add a piece of sugar. If it's black (especially Earl Grey) then milk's okay. Usually don't take milk with flavoured tea, even if it's black. Well Earl Grey is bergamot-flavoured, but that's just the exception.
And when it's a cold, grey, and rainy day I may even take some honey with it. 8)

No less than Merseyside deserves, at any time of the day / year (although obviously we'd give the HLers a 10 minute warning of any impending catastrophe). :twisted: As for the topic...I was expecting HL to need a colonic irrigation or somesuch. Tea? Mmmmm, I love mine coffee-shaped. :P

Coffee. Black, strong, no sugar.

If you want milk and sugar, why'd you ask for coffee? :P

Assam. No milk, some sugar. I like the milk, but it turns me into something with a nasty smell to it..
I can´t go without my daily pot or two. My addiction started when I was only twelve, has lasted for 23 years now.

Tea : No milk, 1 sweetex. Tea-bag only in for a bit so you can still see to the bottom of the cup.

I'm allergic to coffee. :roll:

That's groovy. What I'm proposing at present is a nonstop, 24-hour-a-day tea-a-thon to be undertaken by the Heartlanders. In the wreckage of failed diplomacy, it's the safe and tasty alternative to nuclear war.

Dave's colonic idea is also good, why am I not surprised it was he who suggested it!? :lol:

As long as the tea is strong, very strong, warm and wet..no sugar and a minimum of milk, preferably goats milk or rice milk (lactose intolerant, what joy).

Tea must be made in a pot as far as I'm concerned. Just doesn't taste right to me if it isn't...doesn't mean I won't drink it, that's just the way I prefer it.

Coffee...black and 3-ish heaped spoonfulls of brown sugar or a healthy fortification of Irish Cream...strength - 50,000volts minimum otherwise it makes me sleepy.
I don't necessarily agree with everything I think.

"Lactose intolerance" is actually the majority condition for humans. Lactose tolerance has only evolved since we domesticated cattle, and only in some (mainly western European) populations.

wiki-clicky on lactose intolerance.
