6 cups is hardly addicted :lol:. I drink around 9 per day (Yorkshire tea too - my habit is expensive :( )

I'm on Twinnings. When you read that, it probably sounds a bit like an illegal drug. :lol:

A cup of tea goes best with some toast and marmite, though I understand you don't like marmite, from the original thread. :)

TV Licensing. They pestered me, and sent rather threatening letters throughout much of my time at Uni, not to mention putting the price up twice and double-billing me when I tried to pay by direct debit. This caused an overdraft charge, which I demanded TV Licensing pay, and I never got (I would have sued if I had been American). I promptly chopped the account. Even paying by cheque the next year, having the only telly in the flat, I put it in the kitchen so that everyone could use it. They threatened to send someone round to inspect my room, and I told them that they could go right ahead, and keep any television sets they found, because they would not be mine. They never turned up, but still sent threatening letters.

The telly stays at home next year, I'll listen to the radio instead.

Twining's makes Yorkshire look cheap :o although I do like English Breakfast, Assam and Traditional Afternoon but have to be careful to brew them for longer since my mug is larger than the average mug.
You're correct, I cannot stand marmite. I like my first cuppa with either a bacon or sausage sandwich for breakfast

Hope it's not radio 1. The only thing worth listening to on there is Gregg James!

Still, it's worth every penny. :)

Tea goes lovely with a bacon sandwich, though as this is the 'what do you hate thread', I'd better remind you of marmite and cheese, marmite and crackers, marmite and ham....:lol:

Exactly or pointlessly follow gimicks with them, e.g. must rush out to buy new iphone.

Main reason i dislike them is they think they are better then everyone else.

Did you hear Apple are developing a mini commuter bike?

It'll be known as the iCicle





Is that my taxi?

People who deride another person choice to buy a particular product just because they don't like it

This happens to me quite often, not just with products but other stuff too!

It only ever happens once with the same person! <D
