    Some people will definitely do the all day every day thing but a lot of us just play it up for the internet really. I have a cuppa when I get up, and that’s usually it. Although admittedly my “cup” is a big Green Bay Packers travel mug that keeps it warm for hours, so probably counts as at least two regular cups.

    On days like today when I’m a bit under the weather I’ll have a second one to get me through, and then me and the husband have developed a definitely unhealthy habit of late-night tea and Hobnobs although I go with a normal size cup for that one!

    Older people especially seem to drink a lot out of sheer boredom. Also office workers, same reason.

    Kettle is just for the water, most people use teabags. Loose leaf is “fancy”. I believe english breakfast is the kind that I would just think of as “normal tea” but not 100% sure on that one, it’s just tea! 😅

    Milk is very common to the point of being default, sugar is more of an individual question. I often drink mine black with honey at home but just go with the default milk when out and about.

    I hope this boringly factual tale of life in Tea Country was everything you hoped it would be.

      Yes! It was great, thank you!
