You don't know the subtleties. It is not like rooting a sheep, mate! It is something more sophisticated, there *is* an art to it. There is even something called judgement in where and what you buy and how you grind it. Jesus Christ, Namym! -- dorayme

Tea making is a different art and also requires finesse. I suppose you don't drink tea (tea is for the more refined character like my good self) and if you do, you pretentious oaf, it would almost certainly be tea bags. -- dorayme

I have been making up a tea for many years now, a blend of various teas that have no perfume quality (like that Earl Grey stuff) and I add a small quantity of a smoked tea like Russian Caravan or Lapsang Souchong just to give a hint. Perhaps your main extra curricular activity, you know the one I mean, prevents your understanding the subtlety of the the idea of a hint? -- dorayme

You oaf, Nick! I distinctly recall sitting the two of you at separate tables a while back. I see now that this was not sufficient.
