In the absence of anything constructive to do today Dr Fred and I had a tea tasting experiment... We both are very fond of the British institution of a good cuppa and generally cant even get out of bed until this particular craving has been satisfied - well I can't - Its Dr Freds duty to make tea every morning and to be honest it nearly always a perfect cuppa...

However - we do have quite a lot (possibly too many) conversations about what makes the best tea.. ranging from good old pyramid bags to fair trade types and also leaf tea - even broaching decaffeinated brands. I'm such a lush I don't really think there is much difference between the brands we tend to favour - Dr Fred holds firm he has his favourites so we decided to put it to the test... I wont bore you with the details but it was all very cafe scientific - blind tasting of several different teas including a decaff and true enough I couldn't tell the difference and picked the decaff as my favourite, Dr Fred on the other hand immediately identified his least favourite as the decaff but failed to pick out his alleged best choice from the rest... so there by lies a tale - I'll drink anything if its labelled tea and wet and warm particularly if its made for me and Dr Fred is quite fussy - which I knew anyway - how to waste an hour!!!
