Can it be?

Can another Tuesday be upon us?

Yes, it can.

And I think we all know what that means.

It means there are only three days to go until the weekend!

More importantly, it means the return of the 
feature mankind may only speak of in the most hushed of whispers and the most whispered of hushes.

It's the one in which the first person to comment gets to decide today's subject for debate.

Even I - Dark Lord of this castle - know not what that might be. Therefore, whatever it is you wish to state, enquire, query or debate, type it below and we'll shall see just what a day like Tuesday can bestow upon us.

Please tell me the state of tea for you Brits!

Do you still drink tea? Is there still a “tea time” daily? Do you drink it in big 12-16 oz cups / mugs like we drink coffee? Do you drink more coffee than tea? Do you have any personal rituals around your tea, like eating certain cakes or cookies or sandwiches?

Charlie wants to know!

Well Charlie…

I don’t drink tea. At all. I have never enjoyed it, it tastes of brown paper. And I’m generally not a fan of hot drinks. They make me sweat.

I do, by all accounts, make a cracking cup of tea though. Just teabag tea but apparently the results are excellent, I’m told.

My wife drinks tea and coffee all day every day. Decaf, but gallons of it.

I never used to like coffee either but I began drinking it after a meal in restaurants because it balanced out the wine, and then the occasional cup at home. In the last two years I’ve started drinking it on Friday & Sat mornings as a treat, especially since my wife bought a fancy coffee-maker and the beans I get from Soho’s legendary Algerian Coffee House are superb. I have to have it with a lot of sugar though because I’m soft.

The downside is that on a Friday morning, all hopped up on caffeine and sugar, I can tend to make impulsive internet purchases. Struggling with that at the moment,
