Hi to all,

If anyone is interested in having a "brew" sometime, please PM me with your details and I'll send a couple in the post.

Found in my Brit rat packs, except for the Liptons, those were found in my French rat packs. (I don't know or have met anyone who drinks Liptons here in the U.K.)

Yup... circum-chance in the Universe is totally funny.
I went to the Fell-Off-A-Truck Stop yesterday and they had Typhoo, TyphooGold and a decaf... or would that be "decaph"...?
$2.99 and $4.99 depending on bag count.
I took a pass because I have some really good black tea already and one of our fine friends on here offered to send me a couple of loose bags as well.
I might just find out that there is some in the Canadian IMP too.

BTW-
YES! I will plan on a fine X-mas breakfast of that same Beans In Sauce IMP... review posted immediately for your unwrapping and comments.
Be sure to take time away from the frenzy-under-the-tree to check it out!

Sadly, it's just because it's an import. I can walk one aisle over and pick up a can of Campbells Tomato soup for $1.09, and thats in a microwaveable cup, ready to eat. You would have really hated to see the price on the Mars bars and Turkish Delight... ;)

I have been drinking the P&G tea in the afternoon instead of coffee and it is a good tea. It does not upset your stomach. My son also have been drinking it with Lemon and sugar, he likes it also.

When I started soldiering in the 90s British Rat packs (24 Hr GP Ration pack there were 6 large tea bags making 1 pint each and 6 25gm packs of sugar

Just about enough for the day ;-)
