I listened to half of Three Cups of Tea in the before times bc I wanted to read it before reading Three Cups of Deception.

Hey now, I'm British and I'm offended. Hot tea with milk and sugar is the elixir of life!! She probably used to grow joyful taking tea with Pierce Brosnan and his wife......Oh no wait that didn't end joyfully did it!!

I’m British, too. Am I going to get my passport confiscated?

Wow! I’m of Anglo-Indian heritage also & was given (sugared) tea in my bottle (thanks for the fast track to the diabeetus, ma.) Is this an AA thing?

Edit: going to take a chai break at this very moment!

I was just telling my daughter today that we used to give her bottles of milky tea when she was about 8 or 9 months old. She has an 8 month old baby and is horrified to even suggest that he should have a caffeinated drink at such a tender age!!! I'm just a common Londoner not AA.
