Yes, it's the first day of the year 0000 AT - Anno-Teabags. I ran out of teabags yesterday. The may not seem like a big deal to you, lives-close-to-shop-which-sells-teabags-er, but the closest source of Irish teabags for me is about 1600 miles in a west-south westerly direction. Nasty. I need my teabags.

I'll pop down the street to me local Greek market here in Boston and pick U up a box of Barry's!

Are there any online sites U can order some from? Or someone at home to post out a few hundred?

Fingers crossed i'll be heading home in July and can restock then. I might just ask the ma to send over a box or two of Lyons's.

I need me tea

Why is it so hard to find good tae outside of Eire (& the UK)?

Once I found some really good loose tae at an Indian shop and another time at an Iranian bakery.

It's just hard to get strong plain tea. "Black" tea is just not popular, they're into all that flavoured shite here

Your fellow bloggers feel your pain, maca!

I launched an appeal on your behalf last week. Should have enough to send some out to you. gerryosullivan@mac.com>Drop me a line with your preference (Lyons or Barrys) and an address.
