You can always tell that it’s Sunday because Sundays the spammers sleep in.
Good day to all, I’m posting this without having had my first sip of tea, so I better stop typing and go get it. -
jackie posted on the forum topic Jackie’s disgust – and Teavana doesn’t want to sell tea in the forum General Discussion: 13 years, 1 month ago
When I tried the tea Pete offered, I really was horrified. I was expecting tea, not some syrupy drink. What I tasted had absolutely nothing in common with Jasmine Pearl tea anymore. Why on earth would they try and sell tea like juice? I had no idea a tea shop would add sugar to teas by […]

Jackie commented on the post, English Breakfast Tea? There, I've said it!, on the site Lord Devotea's Tea Spouts 13 years, 1 month ago
You’re a talented writer Robert and always entertaining. However, a few things struck me. You wrote:
“English Breakfast is sadly and shamefully vastly more likely to be in wretched teabags, and comes from Kenya and Malawi.” “Malawi? It’s almost impossible to say where that is on a map with any certainly; let alone imagine a pith-helmeted […]

I’ve done my morning rounds on here, read your posts, deleted the “Gucci handbag” idiots from the stream & am now nipping off for a little bit.

I miss it too! Don’t worry, Pete knows what it means to Tea Traders – although it’s nice you mentioned it. The current chat “system” was measurably slowing down the loading of the site, so Pete temporarily took it off. He has plans to go with a different “provider” which won’t affect performance like this. The chat function is a separate…[Read more]

First thing I do every morning with a cup of tea is Tea Trade. Just to keep up with what’s been going on overnight. Looks like everybody’s doing just fine.

Jackie commented on the post, Damn You, Damiana, on the site Steep Stories 13 years, 1 month ago
@thepurrfectcup – I think it all depends on *how* you write about these things. If you said: and then I brewed up my 29th cup of Chamomile to help me with my awful pains, which I am now going to describe cramp by cramp that’s one thing. Perhaps not a good thing. But there are ways […]

Well guys, I’ve no clue about these herbal wonder greens, but I do know I spent some very enjoyable minutes reading this. You know you can’t please everyone, it’s as simple as that. There’s no point in even trying to write the most inoffensive blog post you can muster, because you’ll fail. Someone will find […]

Just when I’m getting comfortable here with a cup of tea & your updates, I have to dash off again – see you all in a little bit Tea Traders.

Stayed up late last night going over all sorts off little things on Tea Trade. Was watching Pete code stuff, wishing I could just do it too.
Now sipping Darjeeling, while checking everything on here, messages, etc. I think all’s clear now and I can pop off and do some non Tea Trade related things. Back in a little while. -

Rachel, – it’s so good to hear from you again. We missed you! We caught the odd tweet, but were wondering how you were doing. Whatever it was, I’m glad the cloud has lifted. You know even when you’re absent – for us here on Tea Trade – you’re never gone. Looking forward to what […]

jackie started a new topic The new East India Company – Video link in the forum Notable Article LInks: 13 years, 1 month ago
Ratetea mentioned he’d just discovered the new East India Company – we talked about them a little while back. Not sure if I sill have the link, if I do I’ll add it. Either way, here’s an interesting short video about their flagship store in London which opened in 2010. Looks expensive! For the full CNN article […]
